So, FI and I are discussing whether we want to do a first look & our staged photos before the ceremony or have his first look be when I come down the aisle and do photos during cocktail hour.
Some relevant information:
- We are spending the previous night apart and will not see each other prior to first look or ceremony.
- We only have one photographer.
- We are getting married at a small, local history museum. Ceremony & reception are both there. Cocktail hour is in the exhibit hall (which we and photographer would miss if we do pictures after ceremony). I love our venue and the idea of cocktail hour among the exhibits.
- We have a 530 ceremony with a 600 cocktail hour.
So, what did you do/what do you plan to do? Regrets? Reasoning?
We are leaning toward first look/pictures before but our newlywed friends swear that we would be missing out on his look when I walk down the aisle.
