reception hall/church ceremony

Hi, this is my first time posting a message, but I have been reading the chat board religiously. It has been very helpful.

I have a question about the time between the church and the reception hall. I already booked my church for 10:30 am and have narrowed my reception hall choices to two-the meadow club and timber point cc. I like timber point cc a little more bcs of the grounds, but the bm told me that afternoon weddings begin at 1200. Would that be enough time for travel and pictures? my church is about 20 minutes away. The meadow club afternoon wedding would begin at 1:00pm. Thanks

Re: reception hall/church ceremony

Depends on if you're having a full mass or just the ceremony? A full mass is going to run about an hour...by the time you get out of church and take pictures it will be twelve oclock...a ceremony is only a halfo hour...so you could still take pictures and have time to get to the ceremony...and take more pictures on the grounds over there (if they allow you)...
