Pros and Cons of a First Look
Pros:
Enjoy more time during cocktail hour to mingle with your guests and celebrate together.
Experience intimate moments with your partner, allowing genuine emotions to flourish in a comfortable setting.
Preserve the magic of seeing each other at the altar; this moment remains uniquely yours and untouched.
Capture more couples photos without sacrificing your quality time with guests.
Create unforgettable images that you’ll treasure for a lifetime.
Consider options like a first touch or transitional first look for added depth.
Cons:
Departing from traditional wedding customs might not align with everyone’s values, especially if you hold superstitious beliefs.
Your day will start earlier, as first looks occur before the ceremony, meaning you'll need to be ready sooner.
Some of your formal portraits will be taken before you are officially married, which could feel unconventional.
You may feel pressure to present specific emotions when seeing your partner.
