Your wedding day is full of choices, and deciding whether to do a first look is one of them. The tradition of waiting to see the bride until the ceremony is a beautiful one, steeped in emotion and anticipation. There's nothing quite like that magical moment when the doors open, and you see each other for the first time surrounded by your loved ones.

That said, doing a first look has its own unique benefits. Sharing an intimate, private moment before the ceremony can help calm nerves and give you a chance to soak in the excitement together before the day gets into full swing. It can also make your timeline flow more smoothly, allowing you to take wedding party and even family photos before the ceremony. This way, after you say "I do," you can head straight to celebrating with your guests without worrying about fitting in more portraits.

Whichever path you choose, we're here to help you craft a timeline that feels right for you and captures every meaningful moment. It’s your day, your story, and we’re honored to tell it.
