Kitchen Worktops - How long to template, deliver and install?

Previously posted in DIY but posting here in the hope of more responses.

I am at the end of my tether this evening. Kitchen fitter didn't have the decency to let me know that he is not coming on the day he said he was coming next week because some other work has over run (I only found out because I had messaged him). This means that I have had to delay the templates being drawn up for my worktops and also that I have a load of large heavy boxes where my new settee should be placed (if the kitchen fitter had done what he said he was going to do this wouldn't have been an issue). All of this wouldn't have really mattered except I am trying to get the place ready for my ds's birthday party which we are having at home this year.
Please can anyone tell me how long kitchen worktops take to be made, supplied and installed. A first world problem really but I am stressed out worrying that the kitchen won't be finished in time now. Anyone?

Ours were about a week, from the template being done to them being fitted, however, my builder/kitchen fitter worked to a schedule and we knew at the beginning of the project, weeks before, the day the template was being done, so they were booked in way ahead.

Thanks Bonkers that given me hope that it is indeed possible to have the template done and fitted. They have about 3 weeks - it is a very large company, so I'm hoping that there might be some flexibility. I've also let them know the date of my ds's party, so fingers crossed.

We live overseas and it took one week. Measured and templates Thursday, produced in the UK and fitted following Friday.

Three weeks for ours- granite. Back in the day.
