The First Look

My Fiancé and I are in this stump whether we should do a first look before the ceremony or not. I would like to do the first look to help get the jitters away and take pics before the ceremony. My Fiancé would prefer to wait to see me walking down the aisle. We need help! What are your guy’s advice...

    Always a first look. I NEVER expected my hubby to cry, but he did. So worth having that moment together, alone!!

    I'm a fan of waiting to the walk down the aisle especially if FH is for it. I know if FH mentioned the idea of a first look to me I'd turn him down, but that's just my preference. However, I'm wondering if there's another solution for your jitters, that could help you both be happy? Like maybe meeting up that morning before your all dressed up, instead of going no contact all day or, or something to help? I a lot of Christian couples do a prayer together where they have a door between each other so they can't see but they hold hands. If a prayer's not your thing maybe guys could just have a moment where you tell each other something without seeing each other?

    My fiancé and I will be doing first look Photos as well. We would like to try and get majority of our photos out of the way so we can relax and mingle with family and friends.
