I am kind of bummed that I am seeing my FH before our ceremony for pictures. I bought a second dress because I wanted to keep some surprise of me coming down the aisle. But now I am thinking that I don't want to have all these pictures in my second dress, I don't love it nearly as much as my 'real' dress. I am torn between keeping the surprise and having pictures in a dress that I don't Love. What do I do????
What is everyone else doing who is in a similar situation?
Thanks!
P.S. Last night I had a dream, really a nightmare, that it was my wedding day and I forgot to send out the invitations! haha - just wanted to share that too.

At first my fiancee wasn't interested in seeing me before, but after speaking with the photographer, in addition to the fact that he doesn't want to miss the cocktail hour. He agreed and we are going to do a reveal so the photographer will still get his initial reaction when he first sees me. We also plan on greeting all our guests at cocktails so we don't have to spend all the reception doing it and we can relax and have fun.... We will still do a few shots after the reception to get the dusk shots outside.
I'm doing the same!!!
THIS!

At first I really didnt want my FH to see me beforehand...but the more we talked about it with our photog and videographer, the more we agreed that a first look would be fine. We're going to get ready at separate houses and then take different limos to the hempstead house, this beautiful castle and do it there. Our families and bridal party will be there and it will all be on video. It gives us more time to actually enjoy our CH and guests.

I was in the same place! We were torn between pictures or surprise. We decided not to see each other before the wedding because although we can get more pictures in that way it really wasn't what we wanted. We will not be in most of the cocktail hour but I'm ok with that. I really want my future husband to see me walk down the aisle when he see's me for the first time that day.
THIS is how I feel too.. however getting married in the winter and having my Church wedding at 3 by the time we get out it is going to be dark, so i have to sacrifice having daylight outdoor pictures for the most part. But I think it will be worth it in the long run bc I want the moment the doors to open to be magical lol
