A detailed day of the wedding timeline

A wedding timeline is a detailed plan that outlines the events and activities that will take place on the day of the wedding. It typically includes important tasks and milestones leading up to the wedding day as well. 

The timeline helps to keep the couple, wedding party, and vendors on schedule and ensures that everything runs smoothly on the big day. The timeline may vary based on the size and complexity of the wedding, but it usually includes getting ready, the ceremony, and the reception, with each event broken down into smaller, more manageable tasks.
