When Stephanie first reached out to us, she was eager to have help figuring out the timeline and the flow of the day. She wanted to be sure that enough time was allocated for each part of the day (getting ready, setup, first looks, ceremony, dinner, dessert, etc.) She described herself as an easy going person, but felt anxious to figure these things out on her own. This feeling is totally normal! You’ve likely never planned a wedding before, so how would you know how to form all the details into a cohesively run wedding day? That’s where a professional with years of experience comes in!

We worked together with Stephanie to create a wedding day timeline that suited what her and Michael wanted for their wedding day. This included relaxed getting ready time for both Stephanie and Michael followed by first looks with Stephanie and her dad, then the bride and groom. Having a first look is great because it allows for plenty of time for couples portraits and wedding party photos.

Following photos, they had a gorgeous outdoor ceremony with their closest loved ones. The floral arch was stunning and made for the perfect backdrop! One of the tricky parts about timelines can be the reception formalities like toasts, dances, and the cake cutting. Are you someone who likes to get everything done in the beginning or have these things spread throughout the evening? These are the kinds of questions we ask to build a wedding day timeline that is perfect for you! Having these conversations well ahead of time ensures that everything runs smoothly on your wedding day.

Stephanie and Micheal’s day felt effortless and full of love, which is of course always our goal! Cheers to the happy couple and thank you to Stephanie for this kind review!

“JULIA IS YOUR GIRL!! We just got married on 8/19/23, but hired Julia with Weddings with a Twist in February of 2023. At the 6 month meeting with my venue, I was left feeling overwhelmed and stressed out - I KNEW I needed to hire someone to handle all of the things I couldn’t. My biggest stressor was the wedding day timeline - I didn’t know where to start or how to put things in an order that made sense. Therefore, I reached out to Weddings with a Twist and Julia contacted me saying she was available - thank goodness! Julia was great right from the get-go. She asked me questions about things I hadn’t thought of and she gave me her kind thoughts and opinions on what other brides have done when I was completely lost. I was not familiar of the logistics of weddings and I am so happy Julia was there to guide me along. On our wedding day, everything went SO smoothly. I got lots of compliments on how everything flowed and there is not one thing I would have changed. The day was absolutely perfect and if there was anything that went wrong, nobody told me about it lol. Overall, if you need a pro who will give you peace of mind, HIRE JULIA - look no further :)”
