Good time for evening Ceremony???

Goose2, on October 20, 2021 at 6:53 AM Posted in Planning 0 8
My wedding is in the summer time and although I can’t wait, I’m not sure what time to put on the invitations. I don’t want to start too early but I also don’t want to start too late in the evening.


I was think ceremony start at 4pm and reception starts at 6-6:30? What do you think???

    This will depend on how long your ceremony will be, and the travel time (if any) between ceremony and reception venues. You will not want to have a gap between the ceremony and cocktail hour. Guests should be able to go straight to cocktail hour after your ceremony, followed immediately by the reception.

    My future sister in law also had her ceremony at 5:30 (July wedding). Mine is this month so we are having it at 4:30!
