Why this timing works

After more than 500 weddings, one of the biggest timeline mistakes I see is a ceremony starting too late. It can leave almost no room for family photographs, couple portraits or simply enjoying your guests before the light disappears.

Your Ceremony Time recommendation works backwards from sunset so those important parts of the day have space instead of all being squeezed into the final few minutes of light.

It’s a recommendation, not a rule. Your venue, ceremony length, travel and traditions can all influence the final timeline — but this gives you a strong starting point.
