Timeline

A timeline well-planned and organized, is the beginning of a smooth wedding day, ensuring you make the most of it! Every minute is precious!
Deciding on your timeline is one of the most critical aspects of all planning. On the other hand, it will ensure that all your vendors have the necessary time to provide their services conveniently.
Below, we provide two examples you can download and use for inspiration, and you'll also find a template you can print and use to create your timeline.
We are always available to help you create and organize your timeline.

MORE PHOTOS

You can never have too many, right?
They will complement the coverage of your wedding day and add a very special touch to your album. We will portray you as a couple.

INTIMATE MOMENT

It's an intimate and private moment between you, away from the gaze of your guests. You'll be able to express yourselves freely as you are and how you want to remember this moment later.

We want it to be a very romantic moment so that you forever remember the love that binds you and pass this information on to your future generations.
