Re: pics b4 the ceremony
I would not take pics after the wedding. You never know what the shape of your dress will be in, your make-up etc..you want to be the freshest you possibly can be for pics.
Try to find a place that will allow you to take pics before the ceremony. It will be early, but worth it.

Re: pics b4 the ceremony
we are taking pictures before because of the same thing. the ceremony is at 11:30 and the photographer told me we should start at 9. what we are doing is we are arranging the the photographer a special meeting between FI and I so that the photographer can capture the look on his face and so that we can share the moment together alone. At first i didn't love the idea, but now the thought of the two of us looking into each others eyes on our wedding day, alone with no one looking at us, feels like such a special moment to share.

Our ceremony started at 11:30 (quick rehearsal at 11) and we took pics before at the Planting Fields Arboretum and at the Crescent. You have to get up early, but it's definitely possible. I'm so glad we took pics before. We were able to enjoy the whole day and some of my favorite pics were the ones at the arboretum.

Re: pics b4 the ceremony
I am taking pics after my wedding, but I am probably the only one doing this. I just do not want to see my FH before, and we're starting at 11:30. On the upside, we're doing pics at the beach and I can sit on the sand or even get in the water and not worry about my dress. If you don't care about seeing FH before then before would probably be better.

We are taking them before. OUr ceremony starts at 12 also, I am planning on getting there at 9 am. This should give us time to take our pics and relax a little before the ceremony.

I would take the pictures before the ceremony. I know it will be early, but you and FH will definitely look your best before the party and dancing. As long as you don't have a problem with seeing him before, that is what my vote is for.
