We’re calling out the biggest myth in wedding planning: the minute-by-minute timeline. If your schedule is tighter than a corset on a July wedding day, it’s time to breathe—and build in some buffer.

In this episode, Central Florida wedding photographers Daniella Koontz of Koontz Photography and Jenn Ross of Jenn Ross Photography break down why rigid timelines rarely survive real weddings—and what to do instead.

You'll learn:

• Why "guidelines" > timelines

• How to prep for inevitable delays (makeup, traffic, weather—oh my!)

• Who should really be building your timeline (spoiler: not always your photographer)

• How to build in buffer time without losing your mind

• Why your vendors need to collaborate before the big day

• What photographers actually need to know before showtime

From emergencies to unexpected hilarity (yes, someone did break their cake topper), we’re showing you how to flow with the day—not fight it.

Pro tip: Think of your wedding in thirds—and toss that "10:23am boutonniere pinning" out the window.
