Wedding Day Timeline

Please provide me with a timeline regarding your wedding day. If you would like a sample or help creating a timeline please let me know as I would be happy to assist you with this.

How many guests are you expecting?

Where should we first meet up on the day of the wedding? Please provide an address and start and leave times. This is typically included in the timeline, but just covering my bases. Also, if applicable, where should the second shooter begin?

Is there a certain place we are supposed to park for the ceremony/reception?

Do you have a coordinator? If yes, name and contact information.

Do you have a videographer? If yes, name and contact information.

How many people are in your Wedding Party on each side? Please list their full names.

Please provide a point of contact and their cell phone number for each partner . Someone that will be with each of you during the duration of your day. Someone that I can call in case of an emergency- like you mistyped the location of where you are getting ready and I have driven around the block 4 times and google keeps telling me this address doesn't exist!

Are there any divorces, deaths or difficult relationships that you would like me to know about?

Are there any sentimental details that are a part of the couple's attire (special cufflinks, grandmother's locket, etc.)?

Are there any restrictions for photography at the ceremony site? (i.e., flash not allowed or photographers not allowed to move during ceremony.)

Are there any special details at the ceremony site that we must get a picture of? Any special surprises?

Are there any sentimental details or special surprises at the reception that you want photographs of (Sparkler exit, a certain detail, surprise dance, etc.)?

Please list all the specific photos you may want of special guests, a certain relative, etc. Anything outside the ordinary. Please assume I will be documenting your wedding in full from end to end and have an extensive list of photos I will be getting throughout the day. I just want to add in any that I may be unaware of.

Are there any types of photos that are super important to you. For Example: A shot of your mom crying as you walk down the aisle. If there are a couple shots that really stand out when you imagine your photos, let me know so I can make sure we put those high up on the list.

Please provide a detailed list with each portrait you would like taken for your family formals. Please take the number of portraits into account when scheduling out time. Below is my foundational formals list. Please customize it to meet the needs of your family and include the first name of each family member alongside their relation to you. For example: Mom (Betsy), Step-Dad (John), etc. — The list below takes approximately 30 minutes to complete (10 minutes to gather family members + 20 minutes to execute)!

Tell me about your vision for your wedding day.

Describe your Ceremony and Reception to me. What is your vision?

Do you have a hashtag?

Please list out your vendors with names and social handles (if you know otherwise I can find it) so I can tag them in my social posts.

Details like who did your hair and makeup, who is your Florist, Where did you buy the dress, the suit, where did you buy your rings, Shoes, Who did your décor, Catering, your Cake, Videographer, Dj etc... all the details that helped make your day! Vendors love to be tagged seeing their hard work come alive in my photographs so it is always nice to be able to share with them a few images of their products from your wedding day.
