Choosing Wedding Ceremony Start Time - as part of the Wedding series by GeoBeats.

Hi, my name is Annie Lee and I am a wedding and event planner. Here is what I do when I try to figure out what time a ceremony should start. First, I look up what time will sunset be the day of the wedding.

I want guest to walk into a candle lit room which means that has to be dark. So sunset is when guest walk in to reception, and hour before that is when cocktails begin, and an hour before that is when you ceremony starts.
