Hi there, I'm pretty organised re most things but not sure about the timeline, our service has to be at 1 o clock as the registrar is free then, we have a 30 min journey to reception, is 3/4 to late to start reception?? Help.

im not really sure about mine but im planning something like this (we also have 30 min journey to reception venue)
12.00 ceremony 12:30 photos at church 2:00 reception drinks 3.45 receiving line 4:00 sit down meal 7:30 evening reception.
im going to have another chat with my photographer though nearer the time as they are the people who know how much time they need for their photos and generally have a good idea x

Wow guys thanks all for the input, very helpful. I can't change registrar as its the only time they are free. I'm so excited but it feels so far away, I have the venues booked and reg penciled in, what else should I be planning from a year to go?

I'm having an earlier wedding, my timings are
10 am groom and family arrive (I'm stopping at the venue) 10.30 am guests arrive 11 am ceromony 11.30 drinks reception, canapés and photos 12.45 geusts seated 1 pm speeches 1.20 pm wedding breakfast starts 4 ish wedding breakfast ends,
Then a few hours to chill and get changed or have a few relaxed drinks before the night to 7.30 til 1.30!
With a year to go, I'd be looking at sorting the photographer and any entertainment, thinking about save the dates if you're doing them and looking at dresses xx

This is something I have been stressing over too, our ceremony is at 4.15 but I'm more worried about the getting ready beforehand. I have a huge late phobia but I worry about being ready too early and sitting round for hours just waiting as this is how I am if we go out anywhere. Need to arrange a plan with my moh for how the day will go, my bridesmaids are staying at the venue with me the night before
