Today, we’re diving into one of the most important parts of planning a wedding—the wedding day timeline. I know, wedding timeline tips might not sound like the most glamorous part of a wedding, but trust me: when it comes to making the day feel seamless, they’re absolutely everything. From the ceremony to the reception, hair and makeup to the first look, a well-planned timeline is what keeps everything running smoothly, leaving you and your guests free to enjoy the day without any worries. 

In this episode, we’ll go through real-world examples of how to structure timelines based on different scenarios—whether everything is in one place or spread across multiple locations. Plus, I’ll be sharing tips and common pitfalls to avoid, so you can be fully prepared. By the end of this episode, you’ll have a better understanding of how to piece together each part of the day so that every special moment, big or small, fits perfectly into place. So grab a notebook, settle in, and let’s get into the art and science of creating a flawless wedding day timeline!
