5 Tips to Make Your Wedding Day Timeline Stress-Free
Your wedding day should be full of joy, not stress. Creating a well-planned timeline can help your day flow seamlessly and keep everyone relaxed. Here are five simple tips to help you craft the perfect schedule.
Start Early, but Not Too Early
Give yourself enough time to get ready without rushing, but don’t start so early that you’re stressed out before the fun begins. Aim for a calm morning vibe.
Build in Buffer Time
Expect things to run a bit behind - build 15-30 minute buffers around key events like getting dressed, travel, and portraits.
Communicate with Your Vendors
Share your timeline with your photographer, planner, venue, and other vendors so everyone’s on the same page.
Plan for Natural Light
If you want beautiful golden-hour photos, schedule portraits about an hour before sunset - your photographer will thank you!
Prioritize What Matters Most
Focus on moments that are most important to you, whether that’s a first look, family portraits, or extra time on the dance floor.
