wedding pavillion?

[DisneyBride8-4]

Those of you that have had your wedding at the pavillion, how long were you there? According to mouseweddings.com, it says an event at the pavillion lasts longer than other locations. Its saying about an hour and a half. It's also saying that does not including the cake cutting in the time limit. This worries me because I'm planning on having a 10am ceremony and then would LOVE to have a character breakfast buffet at the Park Fare right after, problem is I would need to be there by 11:30. Anyone have any advice on how to make this all possible? Thanks so much!

We are having a Wishes wedding. The ceremony begins at 5 and we will be gone by 6...Our planner says the ceremony should be no longer than 20-30 minutes (30 was pushing it!) and then we are doing group photos and my guests are leaving. I am hoping there isn't a ceremony after ours so DF and I can get some alone pictures too...so I guess it could be up to 1 1/2 hours.

My daughter had a wishes wedding at the pavilion. Her ceremony was at 8:30 in the evening and by the time the reception started at the GF and everyone got there is was after 9:00. (it was a Jewish wedding, so it had to be after sundown on Saturday). All of the pictures were taken before the ceremony.

ok good, so we're probably looking at about a 30 min ceremony then? I'm hoping to have a 10am ceremony, which would mean it would be over by 10:30, then be able to do my cake cutting/ special dances and be at the 1900 Park Fare for the character breakfast by 11:15. I know its only supposed to go until 11:30, bur I'm hoping if they know in advance they will be having around 40 people, and it will be booked way in advance that they could accomodate us. I would love to have a character breakfast after my ceremony and then be able to change and head to the parks. Also, does anyone know if I can take my pictures before the ceremony? I have no problem being there earlier or my fiance seeing me, I just want to make sure we have enough time for everything I want to do!
