 | ceremony starts at 615. sun sets at 623 we're getting married at las caletas on November 3, 2008. I recently saw a sunset calculator in another thread and punched our date in. Concerned over the time between ceremony starting and the sun setting I emailed our WC to see if we could move up the timing. No such luck. So she tells me that our ceremony starts at 615 and the sun sets at 623. I'm FLIPPING out. Our ceremony is going to start and it will already be dark!!! Needless to say we're not going to get any good pictures with our families on the beach during the daylight hours.
Now what?! She said we can move our date up. Which is still a possibility since we haven't sent STDs yet (as luck would have it i ordered them yesterday)
so gals, what would you do? i'm stressing now. our deposit is down.. ugh

And imaging placing candles all around your ceremony area. That would be beautiful. (I remeber that Friends episode when Ross was marrying Emily and there were hundereds of candles everywhere!) |

 | Re: ceremony starts at 615. sun sets at 623 Also, double check which sunset that is. There are 3 kinds - actual, and 2 others I can't remember the name of. It might not mean it will actually be dark at 6:23 - just dusk.
