First looks who is doing them We are not

We are doing a first look as well as all photos including family prior to the wedding. We wanted an intimate moment just the two of us before the busy of the day continues. It also worked better for us and our family. Then we can relax after and spend time with our wedding guests. Took a bit of organizing but I think it will be worth it.
There’s pros and cons to both and I don’t think either decision is wrong.

View Quoted Comment Hi April my condolences to you and your family. It's very easy when. A special event takes place and we want those ones with us to enjoy it with us. I know the feeling im right with you. That's different you and him are walking to the altar together. So you both are walking in together and not him meeting you at the altar

View Quoted Comment Hi Hayley I'm so sorry that she had lost that reaction moment from him. Because that reaction was now gone. Some lose that special moments and others said that they did not. If your gut tells you to do traditions and some do the new thing what ever works for everyone

HONEY yes ma’am his exact words 🤣🤣 he said no ma’am you tried it lol 😂 honey sometimes these grooms be Groomzillas lol 😂 jk he’s great, but I agree if you can afford to wait then I think it’s up to you ,but we wont be doing one lol our photographer said no problem she understand the crazy I’m working with 🤣😩

We had planned to not do a first look, but our friends did and the pictures they got of that moment were amazing! I’m crying, the two of them embracing, it was really special. So now we’re going to have that moment AND the big reveal to all our guests, but we’ll still have that moment that was ours. Either way, I am with you on the emotional factor! He will be wowed for sure

That’s really nice, I felt the same way. But with all the chaos on the day of, I wanted a moment for just us. After speaking to my photographer, they advised that everyone they worked with who did the first look were still “wowed” by their bride coming down the isle. Sold! We’re doing it and I can’t wait for OUR moment and taking photos, just us, in our own space before things get crazy!

We aren't doing although it would be nice to get some pictures out of the way. He is wanting to be wowed when I walk down the aisle. I am going to arrange to get some pictures done of at least the girls before ceremony.

View Quoted Comment Right! My Coordinator recommended this because our venue allows load in 3 hours I advance so we will take advantage of that time to take photos with just us and the wedding party. So after the ceremony, same, only family photos needed.

Waiting until I walk down the aisle. I think it would be more of a surprise 😏.

View Quoted Comment Yes awesome you both will be when both of you connect eyes. You both will feel it that special moment. Thank you for sharing your story and comments with us.
