In this article, we will introduce what information senior brides are adding to their wedding timelines.

Brides planning to DIY their wedding timeline can use these ideas as references ♩

Information Added by Senior Brides to Their Wedding Timelines ① Request to Attend the Ceremony

This bride has included a request for ceremony attendance on her wedding timeline.

Although it's usually written on a sticky note and enclosed, including it on the wedding timeline like this is a lovely idea.

Information Added by Senior Brides to Their Wedding Timelines ② Emergency Contact Information

A double-sided printed wedding timeline with "Contact Information" on the back.

☑ Accommodation for the bride and groom

☑ Contact details in case of trouble

☑ Credit card loss/theft reporting desk

This is a thoughtful touch, especially for overseas weddings.

Information Added by Senior Brides to Their Wedding Timelines ➂ Access Information

This bride has placed access information on the back.

It explains how to get to the venue using a map and details for both train and car access.

Guests can figure out how to get there just by looking at the wedding timeline without needing to pull out their smartphones ♩

Including a QR code for Google Maps is a nice touch!

This bride created a PowerPoint with directions to the venue for those who might be anxious just having a map, and attached the QR code for that timeline.

(She converted the PowerPoint to PDF, uploaded it to Google Drive, and created a QR code from that URL).

Swiping reveals the PowerPoint data. This should prevent any guests from getting lost!

The message "We will have delicious prosciutto and white wine ready for you, so please come early!" is also a charming touch.

It’s likely to excite guests to arrive early!

Information Added by Senior Brides to Their Wedding Timelines ④ Dress Code

The wedding timeline features design with icons listed vertically and comments horizontally.

It includes an invitation to the welcome party and the comment, "We would be delighted if you could come in bright colors of spring for your dress/shirt/kimono!"

By including it on the wedding timeline, you can convey the dress code without being too pushy ♩
