💃🏻Wedding Reception Timeline Tips💃🏻 🕒 Front load the festivities in the first 1.5 hours of the reception 🕒 Keep your timeline & guests on track so all the best moments—like speeches & 🍰 cutting—are covered by your photo & video teams. Then open the dance floor & play the rest of the night by ear ✨ Skip the sparkler send-off ✨ We know this isn’t a popular suggestion but if you’re hosting an afterparty, the send-off photo opp is irrelevant. Not to mention—80 🍷🍺🍸 people holding fire near your beautiful gown & flowing hair = 😱 Instead, go with a ceremony send-off with 💮 petals, confetti poppers or ribbon sticks to have the same moment without eating up your coverage time 🎥 Add coverage time on the fly 🎥 Ask your photo & video teams if they allow you to extend coverage in the moment. Find out what the fee is & stash some just-in-case cash 💵 away. If your timeline is running over or your dance floor is insane, like Elana & Greg’s above, you’re gonna want them to stay so you can relive it all! ⬇ Find more wedding planning tips on every video we post! 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻 Our beautiful couple: @elana.black & Greg #BlackTieBorofsky Venue: @angelorensanzfoundation Planner: @cindy.altunis.events Videographer: #NSTPictures Photographer & Cover Image: @daverobbinsphotography Dress: @viktorandrolfmariage Shoes: @maisonvalentino @loefflerrandall Tux: @boss Bridesmaids’ Dresses: @halston Hair: @andriatobey Makeup: @deborahaltiziomakeup @atelierbridalmakeup Jewelry: @diamondsdoinggood Florals: @brideandblossom Catering: @heavenlyevents Cake: @bythewaybakery Invitations: @byinvitationonlyny Entertainment: @golemrocks Officiant: @rebjoe #weddingceremony #ceremonydecor #flowerarch #brideandgroom #brooklynwedding #angelorensanzefoundation #modernweddingstyle #jewishwedding #weddingmoments #weddingflowers #weddinginspiration #wedding #nycwedding #floraldesign #weddingideas #weddingflorist #bride #angelorensanz #angelorensanzwedding #receptiontips #weddingreception #nycwedding #manhattanwedding #manhattanweddingVideographer #NYCWeddingVideographer #NYCWeddingVendors #weddingtimeline #sparklersendoff
