We completely get it when you don’t want to have a “first look” on your wedding day. You are afraid that you will lose that magical moment. You know what I am talking about — That magical moment when everyone (including your fiance) sees you for the first time.
There Are Many Good Reasons for Having a Wedding Day First Look
Here are some good reasons that the two of you should consider having a first look on your wedding day:
- First and foremost, a “first look” can be very romantic. It can be a special moment just for the two of you. A “first look” will allow the two to enjoy the opportunity to see each other for the first time privately.
- A “first look” will help you calm down your wedding day jitters.
- If your wedding takes place during non-summer months, a “first look” allows you the chance to take outdoor photos before the sun sets.
- A first look allows you an opportunity to enjoy time with your family and friends during the wedding cocktail reception.
Give the Idea of a Wedding Day “First Look” Some Thought
So, before you “poo poo” the idea of a “first look” with your future spouse, give it some thought. Both of you may be very glad that you did. It may be exactly what you need to truly enjoy your wedding day. In the photo above, our couple had their first look right in front of their wedding day hotel, which was the St. Regis Hotel in Washington DC.
