[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 581070, member: 2211"] While I like the idea of the ceremony being at 1, followed immediately with the reception...due to issues with E's visitation with his boys, the ceremony has to be at 1. Then, they want to drive up to a specific location for pictures that is about 45 minutes away while the guests have cocktails. Argh. So they will be missing in action for about 1 1/2 hours, possibly 2! The ceremony and reception are at the same place; it's and outdoor canopied spot with the option of going indoors should the weather turn ugly. It's a beautiful setting on a lake with a nice gazebo for the ceremony. There is a pool and playground for kids, etc. and they have their own kitchen and chef/catering team. We have the choices for menus. I would have loved to do an earlier ceremony and then have a brunch...but the visitation schedule would not allow for that time schedule. Guess I'll just have to wait to meet with the caterer chef and figure out our options. And I'm supposed to meet with difficult child and E to go over any changes that will save money and time. Who knows? Maybe we can do the earlier time frame and do brunch and they can go take pics afterwards? I don't know. Thanks for all the input and ideas! [/QUOTE]
