I don't know sorry. If it's a problem can you speak to your WC?

Least you don't have to wait long until the evening do.

you might want to get pics taken before your ceremony so you can have some in daylight. Are you having your ceremony on the beach? It'd be really cool if your wedding coordinator could set up tiki torches.

Also I think you might be able to have your ceremony earlier and just sign the papers later at 7 with the judge. ask your wc about that.

That is a weird timeline. While I think it would be really romantic, I'm not sure how the pics would turn up. IF that's not a concern for you, I would go for it. We had all candlelight at our reception and it was BEAUTIFUL.

If you decide to go through with it, I would really recommend hiring a photog for day pics either the day of or the day after.

A night wedding does sound romantic! See if you can take your pics earlier in the day before sunset :)
Ask your WC about those tiki torches and candles galore :)

Take a look at my pics. THere is a link in my siggy for them. You can see what a space looks like with a lot of candles and darkness. Plus you can see what pictures look like taken at a dark hour.
