Wedding Tip: #12

Consider doing all your posed, wedding party and family photography before the ceremony - Part 5

Three more words, Other People's Makeup!

So, somehow you made it through the ceremony and everyone still looks good. You're prepared for the receiving line or you're planning to release the aisles so you can greet all the guests and make sure you don't miss anyone. Then it happens, the hug, the kiss or the touch that transfers someone else's makeup to your clothing. Not everyone is as careful as you and they aren't always aware of what they're doing!

Stress!  Nerves!  Whatever you want to call it, your wedding day will probably have its share of butterflies.  A lot of the unease comes from a mental countdown to the big moment.  The closer you get, the more nervous you may become.


All of that pre-wedding nervousness goes away when you plan to see each other ahead of the ceremony and get all the photographs done early.  I've been thanked numerous times by brides that realized how smooth and relaxed everything was by doing the photographs first.
