You know we love to give Variety here…
Every wedding is different because every couple is unique and they all deserve to have their special day reflect that. There are so many benefit of doing a first look on your wedding day. Some couples love the idea of having a first look but just don’t want to spoil the surprise for their significant other on the aisle. There’s a way you can still have your first look and not spoil the surprise for the groom.
Ready for it?
Have your first look with somebody else! We’ve seen brides have their first look with their dad or their bridal party or even with their grandma (cuuuute). This way they can still have that element of surprise in their wedding photos before the ceremony and leave some tasteful anticipation for the groom. Some guys really look forward to seeing their bride for the first time as she comes down the aisle.
In this case, Kaitlyn decided to do first looks! One with her Dad and the other with Chris, her very soon to be husband.Both First Looks were very touching and gave them a personal moment before the ceremony to slow down some time and to talk things out. And since everyone was already there before the ceremony and there were no secrets left to told, they went ahead and did family formals and Bride and Groom portraits so that after the ceremony they could enjoy cocktail hour with their guests!
Thank you guys for having us! We had a great time with your family!
