My wedding is in January, so I’m almost in the home stretch. Eeekkk!! I’m finalizing my day of timeline and I’m stumped with figuring out the order and time for hair and makeup. My wedding starts at 3 pm and I’m the only person getting those services. My fiancé and I aren’t doing a first look or pictures before the wedding. Which service should start first and how much time should I plan for each? My goal is to be ready and waiting to start by 2:30. Thank you!

    I just completed my day of timeline for our May wedding. I have 4 girls in my bridal party along with myself. I am extremely OCD when it comes to scheduling. Our wedding is at 4pm and we are starting hair and makeup at 6am (I know). Smiley shame Each girl will go straight to makeup once they are done with hair. This will also allow us time to breathe and take in the day, as well as eat a bite. Since it will just be yourself, you can start as early as 10am-10:30. Let's say each service will take an hour or longer. 8am - Shower, 9am Breakfast, 10am-10:30 - Glam (done by or before 1pm)... You can take your time getting ready and allow for any of the unexpected (those things we never really plan for). Smiley heart

    I think you should have your hair done first and then makeup, If you have a photographer, you should be ready almost before 2 pm so can do your couple shoot.
