Your wedding day is full of unforgettable first wedding moments. That first look at the bride as she walks down the aisle. That first kiss of marriage and that first dance as a wedded couple. No two weddings are the same. You can choose to do all of those traditional firsts plus more, or you can choose to do none of them at all. It’s your day and your decision!
Unique Wedding “First Moments”
Some other unique wedding “firsts” that many couples choose to incorporate into their ceremony include handfasting, tying a ceremonial knot together, planting a tree to mark the occasion, or lighting a unity candle. Sharing a glass of wine and then smashing the chalice with a foot is another great practice, as is burying a bottle of bourbon upside down. Whether a couple chooses to write private love letters to one another or invite their guests to participate in a ring-warming ceremony, there is no limit to the wedding “firsts” that newlyweds can do on their special day.
That First Look
This couple opted for all of those traditional firsts but added a unique touch. They chose to do the first look with all the bridesmaids and a first look with the bride and her father. These options are not the only ones that you can select. Although this couple did not, many opt for a first look between only the bride and groom. Yet others choose to keep that first look a more private moment between only the bride and groom, opting to see one another before the wedding in their wedding attire.
You may be thinking why, why do all these firsts? Well here are a few reasons. Many couples do them to get more wedding photos. At White Mountains Photo Pro, we will capture every one of those first moments for you to keep forever. Some do it to calm their nerves. Many get nervous about being the center of attention in front of a large crowd of people. Seeing their significant other calms their nerves and gives them the assurance that their partner is by their side. But the best reason of all is that you get to spend more time with the one you love! No matter what you decide to do – all, one, none, or something in between – White Mountains Photo Pro loves capturing all these moments on your best day ever.
