No getting around it. You have so much to do and so little time to do it. If you have a first look, it helps to calm down the day a bit. Instead of trying to rush around to get everyone together and have pictures taken between the wedding ceremony and reception while your guests are waiting, you’ll have that time to relax and enjoy your guests and not have to worry about being late for your reception. We can do all of the main portraits before the ceremony even begins – at the very least, the bride and groom and bridal party photos. This way, your hair, and makeup are still perfect, as they were just finished. If your family is coming earlier, we can do their photos beforehand, as well, or we will only have to worry about those portraits after the ceremony and not the bridal party shots.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”23″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”1233″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][wbc_heading tag=”h4″ title=”JUST THE |TWO| OF YOU” m_top=”20″][vc_column_text]A first look also gives you a very special, intimate moment with your new spouse. If you are nervous or stressed out, this will especially help to relax you, and your spouse can comfort you and let you know it will all be OK. During the ceremony, many people are watching, you can’t fully enjoy it because everyone is staring at you. With a first look, that moment is just between you and your spouse (and me, of course).[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”23″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”1234″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][wbc_heading tag=”h4″ title=”TAKE HIS |BREATH| AWAY” m_top=”20″][vc_column_text]Even if you have a first look, your husband will be just as happy to see you walking down the aisle and you’ll still take his breath away. Don’t worry that you’ll be spoiling the moment by seeing him prior to the ceremony.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”23″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/wbc_color_box][/vc_column][/vc_row]
