Too dark for pics???

Ask your photographer about it. If they have worked in your area before, they will know the best time of day for pictures depending on the season. They should also be able to give you advise and guidance on the feasibility of the shots you want.

All the reception photos should be fine since you'll be inside! I'd definitely talk with your photographer, and think about doing a first look so you can do pictures before the ceremony!

Once you choose one of the photographers that you started that other thread about, you can ask them on the best times for photos.

I talked to several photographers about this since it's something I was worried about, too. We decided to have our ceremony earlier in the day (2pm) so as to have a bit of daylight left for photos after the ceremony. However, a good photographer will have the right equipment to make it work--whether by special settings on their camera, free-standing lights, flash, sparklers, string lights, lanterns, or any combination thereof. There are quite a few creative and beautiful ways to capture great outdoor photos in low light. Try looking up "wedding photos after dark" on Google to see what I mean!

You should also take these concerns to your photographer and see if they have experience with this kind of thing, because it's likely that they do. If not, ask them what methods they will use in order to maneuver around the dim lighting.
