If you are doing Scrum, the development team should be doing something like over 2 weeks:

Daily standup: 15 mins x 10 days = 150 minutes = 2.5 hours Backlog grooming: 0.5 - 1 hour Sprint planning: 0.5 - 1 hour Retrospective: 1 hour Demo: 1 hour

So about 5.5 - 6.5 hours of meetings over 2 weeks. If you're really militant, you can probably take it down to 4 hours, but I don't think you can get much lower than that without dispensing with formal Scrum.

It doesn't seem unreasonable to me to have 6.5 hours of meetings over 2 weeks.

Your backlog grooming is a bit to long. You should only be grooming 10-20 tasks.
