What is a First Look?
If you are new to the wedding planning process and have been in few wedding parties, maybe this idea is new to you. Here are the basics...
How A first look with your groom works
- Bride sneaks up behind the Groom
- Bride taps the groom on shoulder
- Groom waits about 3 seconds and turns around to see his beautiful bride
- All of the emotions and reality hits.
- You reflect with each other and catch up on feelings, the day so far, etc.
Why Should you do a first look?
- Highlights the fact that he has not seen you up until this point
- You will have more time before the ceremony
- It gives you time before the ceremony to be together before entering your crowd of important guests.
- Gives you both a moment to get super emotional together by yourselves (or with the closest people)
- Gives you time to enjoy more of cocktail / coffee hour (and the foods that come with it)
