I will write some more about specific aspects of the wedding in the next few posts, but first I want to give an outline of the day.
The ceremony starts at 5pm, but you should get there around 15 minutes before this to get the best seats. The service will take approximately one hour so it should finish at around 6pm
After the church, we will receive the wishes and small gifts from people who come to the church only. If you have brought a card, now is the time to give it to us. For people coming to the reception, now is the time you should get yourself to the venue – it should take you less than five minutes walk.
We will arrive at the venue at about 7pm. The main points to remember are 9pm for our first dance and we will cut the cake at 12am. The bar closes at 1am and we will leave about 30 minutes after.
Of course this is only a plan, but even with the best laid plans and all expect things to vary slightly.
The wedding must have been a wonderful event and I hope it all went as it was planned. Talking about wedding plans, we are also discussing and laying out all the details for my daughter’s wedding as she will be getting married in a few months. Our first priority is to book one of the best Chicago venues for the wedding.
