A run-of-show is the document that keeps the entire day synchronized. It should be detailed, shared, and updated in one place.
Anchor the non-negotiables
Start with fixed moments like ceremony time, sunset, and venue curfew.
Build the vendor handoffs
Every vendor needs a clear arrival time and a point of contact. A shared planning timeline prevents confusion.
Add buffers on purpose
Ten minutes between major blocks prevents small delays from snowballing.
