How do you plan a wedding timeline.

Currently stuck on whether to start the cemermony at 2 or 2.30, is it best to talk to the photographer to see how much time they need for photos? And discuss with hair and makeup for their timeframe?

How do you deal with significantly less RSVPs than expected?

I have just booked into a venue where we pay a minimum amount for 120 people, however, going over the guest list again I am feeling pessimistic and concerned we will get a lot of no's from out of state guests. Should I go back to the venue to see if it's possible to negotiate paying for a lower minimum, or stick it out?
