What this role decides
Wedding planners
This role owns connect ceremony, entrances, speeches and entertainment to technical cues — the decisions below turn that into an AV brief a supplier can quote.
Ceremony timing rarely moves, so every AV cue on this list needs to work around a fixed schedule rather than the reverse.
Protect the two moments that cannot be repeated — the vows and the first speech — with a rehearsed backup before anything optional in the reception is confirmed.
