Wedding Portrait Schedule

I am adopting the following wedding portrait schedule for the weddings I shoot. Thank you Melissa Jill for your insight & helping me sort through this. You can visit her site at: www.melissajill.net. She is amazing & through her blog she has helped me take my photography to a whole new level. 

Oh yeah, here is the schedule: 

Portrait schedule if you see each other before your ceremony: 

2 hours before ceremony: Bride & Groom see each other for the first time & take portraits alone together 
1.5 hours before ceremony: Portraits with bridal party 
1 hour before ceremony: Portraits with families 
1/2 hour before ceremony: Completely done with portraits as your guests begin to arrive--giving you time to go inside & freshen up. 

Portrait schedule if you don't see each other before your ceremony: 
1.5 hours before ceremony: Portraits of Bride with bridesmaids 
1 hour before ceremony: Portraits of Groom with groomsmen 
1/2 hour before ceremony: Temporarily done with portraits as your guests begin to arrive--giving you time to go inside & freshen up.
