Hi all,
I have just had a phonecall which has created a big dilemma for me! When we booked our registrar we wanted 2pm but it wasn't available so we went for 3. We're getting married at the end of November (everything in one place) so thought 2pm would allow for more photos before it gets dark (assuming weather is ok!).
Since settling on 3pm, I have always been happy with it, as it will allow people to travel down to the area without rushing, check into their hotel, and for them to get some lunch. I also really don't want people being bored on the day if there are big gaps as it will probably be cold/wet so they wouldn't be able to go for a wander outside to kill time.
However, the registrar has just called to say there is a chance we could have 2 after all. Arrghhh! I'm torn. I know it's only an hour, and not the biggest dilemma to ever affect anyone, but I have to answer them tomorrow and I don't know what to say. It would give us more photo time, but would it make the day too long and risk people getting bored? As a guest, would you find it irritating if you couldn't check into your room before you went to a wedding?
What would you do?? What time is best for a winter wedding?
P.S I do intend on discussing this with my other half, too!
