i am debating on the pics before the ceremony? i can't do a church wedding and i don't want to miss the cocktail hour.. but i want him to see me for the first time comming down the isle... i am getting married in 6 days! alot of people are telling me i should do them before hand and i feel like i am wanting to but yet not too! oh what do i do! they only think i can think of is if we do the pics first (getting married at the hall) that still make it that he first sees me walking down the isle... just before the ceremony , does that count. i mean it still the first time he will see me and start the pics with me walking to him down the isle! please give me some advice!!!

Re: i am sooooo torn! need advice
I hear ya on that one. FH and I have been talking about that - he wants to wait and I want to do pics b4 so I can enjoy cocktail hour. I think I convinced him when we went to see our videographer (wild rose) they are going to be there when we first see each other and get his reaction when he first sees me and we will have it forever. When you think about it most of the video and pics center on the bride when she is walking down the aisle so you dont get to see the grooms reaction anyway. But it is a totally tough choice. What does FH think?

Re: i am sooooo torn! need advice
A friend of mine decided to do it before hand and what they did was....The only people that was in the room was the groom and the bride walked in (of course the photo and video people there). They gave them a few min's together had a little champange for them took a few pics and then allowed the rest of the bridal party and parents come in. It was just so they had a few mins to have that moment to themselves.

Re: i am sooooo torn! need advice
I totally understand the questions of what to do. I'm getting married in September we have decided to do all the formal pictures at the Eastwind before our 12:30 ceremony. It will be less hectic for everyone in the immideate family as well as on us. We will get to enjoy out family and friends in the cocktail hour, because face it in the main reception, you don't get to spend as much one of one time with them. This option is also better for the FH because he doens't like pictures, this option gives us a set time for them and set limit and then we are done. The rest of the pictures are candids.
P.S. the suprise of you walking down the isle to become his wife will be there no matter what, b/c it is the day you become one.
