Typical Wedding Day Photography Timeline

At Karon Root Photography, we understand that your wedding day is one of the most significant moments in your life. To ensure that every precious moment is beautifully captured, we have crafted a comprehensive wedding day photography timeline. This guide helps us stay organized while allowing you to fully enjoy your special day in Marshfield, Missouri.

1. Pre-Ceremony Preparation (1-2 hours)

We'll begin by documenting the excitement and emotions during the pre-ceremony preparations. From the bride and groom getting ready to candid moments with family and friends, we aim to capture the essence of anticipation.

2. First Look (30 minutes)

The first look is an intimate and unforgettable moment. We'll be there to capture every reaction as you see each other for the first time on your wedding day, creating photos you'll treasure forever.

3. Wedding Party Portraits (1 hour)

After the first look, we'll gather your wedding party for a variety of posed and candid shots. This is a wonderful opportunity to capture the camaraderie and joy that surrounds you on this special day.

4. Family Portraits (30 minutes)

We'll set aside time for family portraits, ensuring that you have stunning images featuring your loved ones. Our goal is to create a relaxed atmosphere where everyone can enjoy the experience.

5. Ceremony (1 hour)

The ceremony is the heart of your wedding day. We’ll discreetly capture every moment—from your vows to the unforgettable first kiss, ensuring that these memories are preserved for generations to come.

6. Post-Ceremony & Cocktail Hour (1 hour)

While guests enjoy the cocktail hour, we'll take the time to capture beautiful images of the venue's details and any candid moments with your loved ones. This is a perfect time for more candid portraits of the newlyweds as well!

7. Reception (3-4 hours)

The reception is where the celebration truly shines! We’ll capture every detail, from your grand entrance to heartfelt speeches, the cutting of the cake, and all the dancing. Our aim is to tell a complete story of your day, filled with joy and happiness.  We dot NOT take photos while people are eating.

8. Evening Send-Off (30 minutes)

Finally, we'll conclude the day by documenting your spectacular send-off. Whether it’s sparklers, confetti, or a classic car, this is a magical moment that deserves to be captured.

With Karon Root Photography, you can trust that each beautifully captured moment is a step towards preserving the story of your love. Let us help you make your wedding day unforgettable.

NOTE:  Candid shots get thrown in as photographers see them.  Honestly, these can be some of the best moments.  They happen organically.'

Please tell your photographer if there is a shot you desire.  If you don't ask for it they will NEVER realize they are missing something very important to you.
