Am having a little stress...the church is booked for 12..but then someone said to me that was too early for me and my 3 bms to have hair and make up done?.

Has anyone else out there got married at 12?? Hairdresser not an issue as we have two for the day who have said they will get in as early as we need them but just having a little panic as the make up lady has said 40 mins per BM! Wanted 12 as wanted to make the most of the day but now am having doubts..all I get from H2B is can we talk about it after the football!!

Any advice gratefully received!!

    Im planning on getting married at 1 but then im only having 3 BM and 1 flowergirl.

    Hmmm depends how complicated the BM make up and that is for it to take 40 mins.

    Same here with the job, although I havent even thought that far ahead yet.

    My hairdresser said oh you should have your hair all ready by 12, im thinking I want it done asap as its a 30 min car ride to my venue, lol.

    Im sure you will manage though!

    Whilst one bridesmaid is having her makeup done tho another can be having hair done so it'll equal out a bit i would have thought. sorry i cant be of more help than that, the whole timing of the day confuses me as well

    Our ceremony is at 12.30 and I have 4 bridesmaids! I like you wanted to make the most of the whole day, my hairdresser is also doing my mum's hair, but so far neither the make up lady or the hairdresser has said anything about the times. Just have to get up extra early I guess!

    I'm getting married in church at 12pm too. I'm also getting ready at my mum's which is 45 minutes away (giving it an hour to be on safe side). The hairdressers and make-up lady are arriving at 7.30-8. So it is an early start, but my problem with moving it to 13.00 or 14.00 is fitting everything in after, this way we make the most of the day.

    You'll have plenty of time. I got married at 11am. We even went to the hairdressers to have ours done (no one came to us).

    It worked out great for us as by 1.30pm everyone was sat down ready for food. We did it this way because we went on our honeymoon that same evening.

    What else do you plan on doing? You'll probably be up about 8am with excitement, if not earlier.

    Unless your venue is a 2 hour drive away i really wouldn't worry.

    Thank you so much. Feel a bit calmer now!! The venue is only 15 mins away so no long drive to the church!! I think you are right Spring.. will be up with the lark.. am one of those folks who cant sleep at Christmas let alone my wedding.

    Glad there are other people having an all dayer! Just wanted to fill the day! I dont think I could sit around till 2or3pm waiting! Somebody would kill me!!

    It's not too early as long as everyone is where they should be on time! We're getting married at 11am but i have no bridesmaids!

    I too am getting married at midday and wanted to make the most of the day. I also have 3 bridesmaids and a flower girl.

    I am going to the hairdressers, which is just around the corner from where I am getting ready, with my Mum. And then we have a friend who is doing the bridesmaid's hair. Still looking for a makeup person though, but not at all worried about fitting it all in.

    It will work out, it has too!!
