My wedding is 1 week away and I need your opinions

I'm getting ready at home with 2 of my BM's. the limo is picking us up at home and then we're picking up my FH and the groomsmen at the hotel and we're being dropped off at the hall. the photographer is meeting us at the hall 3 hours before our ceremony starts so we have plenty of time for pics.

my dilemma is this.... should I put my dress on at home or at the hall?

when I picked up my dress today, my seamstress seemed very surprised that my FH will see me for the 1st time in the dress sitting in the limo. Honestly, I never gave it a 2nd thought until she mentioned that it would be so much better if he saw me dressed at the hall.

another option is that FH and the men meet us at the hall and I make my 'grand' entrance getting out of the limo.

since the photographer is meeting us at the hall anyway, what would you do?

I think that you should meet him at the hall. I would want to get dressed at home. Everything you need is there.

I would want to make a grand entrance that would take my FH's breath away! Definitely have him meet you there and see you for the first time getting out of the limo. Because if you ride with him there but don't wear your dress, he'll still you in full make up and hair and that takes away from the full effect. Just my opinion.

I agree. Why make things more difficult and have to drag everything w/ you. Plus, you want to make an entrance!

I think you should meet him at the hall-besides-you just might get some really great pictures when you make your entrance and FH sees youfor the first time!
