A wedding day timeline for photos and video: zaffe, dabke and every moment
A good timeline is the easiest way to get better photos. Use this sample as a starting point and adjust it with your venue, DJ and family.
Sample timeline (adjust to your day)
- Late morning: getting ready at home. Allow enough time for details, dress and family moments without rushing.
- Afternoon: couple photoshoot in a garden, park or at the venue. Golden light before sunset gives the warmest portraits.
- Early evening: family and group photos before guests fill the hall.
- Entrance: the zaffe and grand entrance. Tell your photographer the exact order so every camera is in place.
- Reception: speeches, first dance, cake and time for photos at the family tables.
- Late night: dabke and the last dance, the highest energy of the night.
Tips for better photos
- Share a list of the family groups you want before the day.
- Ask the venue to keep the path for the zaffe clear.
- Plan a few minutes with the photographer after the entrance for portraits in the hall.
- If you want drone footage, choose a location outside and check the weather.
Coverage that fits your timeline
