How are you planning the rest of your photos? Our ceremony is at the venue, and we are doing a first look. We have an almost non-existent bridal party ( Maid of Honor & Best Man ). I'm just curious as to who exactly should be present for photos taken before hand? I'd like the least amount of people possible to see me/us before the ceremony starts, but then our family photos will either be indoors or in the dark? Any advice? TIA

Before the ceremony we are doing bridal party, parents, siblings (which are all in the bridal party anyways), and FH grandma since she lives with his parents and will be coming with them. Right after the ceremony were going to do any remaining couple photos we want to do plus cousins/aunts/uncles/grandparents for hopefully just 30-45 minutes since I want my cocktail hour food! Haha

We don't have a bridal party at all so we are just doing immediate family (brothers, moms, dads, grandma) and then we will do the rest after the ceremony!

This is what we're doing too, which was suggested by our photographer.

We have the same thing (MOH and Best Man only). We are doing MOH (who is also my sister), Best Man, FMIL and FFIL, and my Dad.

Our venue isn't really set up to take photos outside, so we are going to Bayard Cutting Arboretum to take photos before the ceremony. My photographer doesn't think it'll take more than 1 - 1.5 hours with that and then go to our venue for ceremony.
