    The priest said it would be no more than 30. Probably because he has to do a mass later that night! Lol

    Definitely under. I’m sure our guests don’t want to sit through a lecture on our wedding day. And I sure as hell don’t want to stand in one spot in my heels for more than ten minutes.

    It’s only supposed to be 30 minutes but it might be a tad bit longer with how our officiant talks.

    Due to unforeseeable circumstances, we just changed our officiant and I have no idea!! 32 days to the wedding. I'd LOVE a long worship service but FH is more in favor of keeping it simple. I'd say less than 30.

    I think mine will be under since it’s just the two of us getting married alone.

    Under. We planned on 30 minutes but it got cut to 10 minutes because it looked like rain for our outside ceremony and we started 15 minutes early.

    It was just in time because it started raining cats and dogs once everyone was inside for cocktail hour.

    We have saved our ceremony/venue reception for 4 hours instead of the usually 3 - that way we have plenty of time for the ceremony and still get a three hour reception. However, we are pretty positive the ceremony will be no more than 30 minutes. We have a relatively small bridal party so that walk will take no time at all. We aren't having an overly religious ceremony either. Quick, simple, and thoughtful.
