Did you hire your dj for your ceremony and cocktail hour or just the reception? Imagining people will be talking a lot during the cocktail hour so not sure the music will be necessary then but also imagine it’s important to have music and speakers for the ceremony? 🤔

I’m notoriously bad with “aesthetic” and design.

Anyone else realize thay they are a generous gift giver throughout the wedding planning process? I have never given less than $150.

Need some advice! Should we update our wedding start time to 4pm so we can have our after party 10pm-1am instead of 5pm wedding start and 11pm-1am after party? We sent wedding invites with a 5pm start time because we have 6hrs at the venue and the bar around the corner said the after party had to be 11pm-1am. Now bar said thee after party can start at 10pm. We can realistically contact all who RSVPd yes to let them know AND a 4pm start time means we still have daylight (it’s a winter wedding).
