The sweetest moment
5 Reasons to Do a First Look
I know I may be biased as a photographer, but I truly believe first looks are one of the sweetest, most intimate moments during your wedding day.
1.) You get the sweetest, most intimate moment of your wedding to yourselves.
Perhaps this is the reason most couples do this, to have something during their wedding day that they do just for themselves. It is a beautiful moment and I have never had a couple regret it.
2.) You can share gifts and private vows
While you could do this without seeing each other, there is something about looking your partner in the eyes when you promise them you will always be by their side for the rest of your life.
3.) It can ease the wedding day butterflies to start out your day seeing your partner
You're getting married to your new permanent adventure buddy. This is exciting and new and wonderful, but it's also someone you know and love and trust. You get to go through today together, holding hands and sharing kisses. But your wedding day can be hectic and sharing a moment together with just the two of you beforehand can help center you for the excitement to come.
4.) Walking down the aisle will still be its own kind of special and emotional
When the groom sees his bride walking toward him, surrounded by family and friends, there will always be emotions that are felt. Walking down the aisle is its own special moment and nothing will be able to take away from it.
5.) More time for photos!
If you want to spend the time after your ceremony with your family and guests, then doing a first look allows you to get many of your desired posed and unposed photos accomplished before the hustle and bustle of the day sweeps you away.
