As in the United States Weddings in the United States are daytime weddings that do not exceed 10 p.m. Guests arrive in the early afternoon and settle in for the ceremony. Then towards the end of the afternoon, around 5 p.m. it is the cocktail and then early in the evening the meal. Finally, the bride and groom perform their first dance at 8 p.m. / 8:30 p.m. and then leave around 10 p.m., all passing under a guard of honor, performed by the guests, for their honeymoon.
