First Look: To Do It Or Not To Do It?!



Pros
You will have more time for pictures.

It could help ease your nerves by
taking away the stress of seeing
each other in front of others.

You can fix your makeup if you cry.

You have more privacy than you would
if guest were around.

You can enjoy cocktail hour because all
of your pictures would be done. AKA
more time to party and have fun with
your friends!

Cons
You have to be ready earlier which
means less sleep. But it's your wedding
day, who really sleeps? It's like
Christmas eve as a child!

Some say you might lose that
magical moment of walking
down aisle and seeing each other
for the first time.

Your dress might get dirty
depending where the
pictures are.

It could feel a little staged with
the photographer telling you what
to do and when.

You might have to pay
more to keep your
hair/makeup artist
there longer for touch ups.

Another option we have seen that is kind of a combination of both options is a first touch! You are able to touch each other and talk to each other but you still have that moment of seeing each other for the first time when you walk down the aisle.
