Photographer for rescheduled reception next year

I think it depends on what you plan on doing. Will you still be having a ceremony where you renew your vows or any of the traditional things at the reception like a first dance or cake cutting. If you plan on having those special moments, then I would think you'd want the photographer there to capture those moments.

I agree with Veronica. Are there specific moments you want captured? Even if those moments are just your guests all dancing and celebrating your wedding? If so, I say go for it! Especially if you're planning to wear your dress and have your wedding party dress up too. That way, you could have pictures from both your ceremony this year, and your reception next year.

You want to have photos taken, you should have them taken. People hire photographers for all kinds of events, not just wedding, so I don't think it should matter that you're already married. You still deserve to have beautiful photos of your celebration with your loved ones.

ALWAYS TAKE PHOTOS!

I'm with Molly!! Take more photos!! It will still be a really special day you'll want to remember!

Although it’s not your wedding, it’s still a special gathering. So, having a photographer is fine

We had a photographer at our minimony and we will have both a photographer and videographer at our big wedding next year!

Why wouldn't you take pictures???

All your friends and family will be there.

View Quoted Comment Well of course I want pictures... my thing is paying for a photographer again when it’s not the wedding day...

View Quoted Comment I'd rather spend money on good pictures than most anything.


Pictures are forever

View Quoted Comment Yea but I have photos from my real wedding day... so I wasn’t sure if it was odd to have a photographer again...

I would absolutely have a photographer. Even though you’re already married, it sounds like it was downsized and different from what you originally planned and envisioned. I say have the ceremony & reception you dreamed of and pay the money to have it captured forever!

Well the thing is, i was very happy with my smaller wedding. it was beautiful. if the venue could give back our deposit, i would be totally fine with not having another event next year. our wedding was intimate and what i actually wanted.

View Quoted Comment It sounds like you don’t really want a photographer. So don’t have one. No need for us to talk you into it.
