Wedding Day Timetable

NOTE: If you are going to change clothes at the reception, make sure someone will take care of the gown and tuxedo.

When you make your time table, (1) schedule each event and (2) plan enough time for it. The following chart will help you with the essentials; the spaces between each item will let you add the things that will be different for your wedding (you might get dressed at church instead of at home, etc.) Make sure your photographer, caterer, baker, florist, and musicians know your time table and that they approve any last minute changes. Go ahead and fill in as much of the information as possible right now while you are online and then print it out when you are done. If you are not certain of all the information right now, you can still fill it in later.
