WEDDING DAY TIMELINE: Can you provide me with a rough timeline of the wedding day? If we haven’t already discussed this in detail, now is the time! I would love to help you create a timeline that will allow for plenty of beautiful portraits and a stress-free day! If you’re sharing a FIRST LOOK, I will need to start shooting bridal details at LEAST 2.5 hours before the ceremony. 3 hours is recommended if there is no extensive travel time to the ceremony venue. I wrote this if you need more detailed reference: https://www.caseybrodley.com/blog/wedding-day-timeline-recipe

FAMILY FORMALS
*
Family formals do not have to take over 20 minutes. However, this is only possible
if we are organized beforehand!
Please list 10-20 different groupings for family photos. Including names helps me call out specific people.
For example:
1. Couple with parents.
2. Couple with grandparents.
3. Couple with siblings.
Please also consider if you want multiple different groupings with the same people (ex. Bride with her parents, Groom with his Parents, Couple with both sets of parents, etc.)
Each grouping typically takes 1-2 minutes to set up and take the photo. It's very important that you let everyone on this list know when we are taking these photos so everyone is present. If you have a very large family and more than 20 group photos, I suggest saving some of the extended family shots until the reception so that family portrait time will not interfere with your romantic portraits and you will not keep your guests waiting at the reception.
**Please inform me of any family members that may not get along and/or may not want to be grouped with a certain other family members so that we can avoid and awkward interactions during family formals. Thank you!!
Are there any divorces or separations that I should be aware of during family formals? Any family situations I should be aware of?
Are their any RULES or REGULATIONS for photographers at your ceremony location?
What is your wedding hashtag? (if applicable)
If there are any specific requests for photos (aside from whats listed in the family shot list) please include those requests here.
Is there anything else I should be aware of on the wedding day? Surprises/ Gifts/ Special Details/ Etc?
