What time should I start my ceremony?
Your ceremony time is set in your contract to suite the season and determine your access hours , please review. Music off 5 hrs after ceremony start time.
If you would like to change it, notify hello@sunsetoaksvenue.com at least 3 mo prior to the event date. This will change your access hours, as access ends 5 hrs after scheduled ceremony start time, then you have an hour to say “goodbyes,” pack up, and depart before the gate closes.
Fall/Winter: Consider you’ll need 1-2 hours of daylight after the ceremony for photos
Spring/Summer: Consider setting a reasonable dinner time (i.e. it takes an hour for buffet service, and kids, grandparents are accustomed to eating before 6 or 7).
Our advice for latest start times:
Nov-Mid March 3-4 p.m.
March-April, Sept-Nov 5 p.m.
May-Aug 6 p.m. (find a way to serve dinner at a reasonable time)
