This came up last night at the photographer's meeting...
How many of you will be seeing your FH for pictures before the ceremony for the sake of time and the cocktail hour??
My mom nearly lost her cookies tb/c I plan on doing that...but the photographer will catch the moment we see each other either way!!

we're getting married in a church so the first time we'll see each other is when I walk down the aisle. We have a big gap of time between our ceremony and the CH so we have plenty of time to take pics.

I think I want to take pics before the ceremony just so that we have time to have fun! My mom is VERY old fashioned and I don't even want to tell her. She will probably make a big deal about this.

Re: QOTD 6/10/08
I am so sad over this situation:(
The one thing about my wedding that I have always most anticipated is seeing the look on my FH's face when I first walk down the aisle. Unfortunately, I have a medical condition that is complicated by stress, so we are going to see eachother before so we are not rushing around during the cocktail hour trying to get pics:(

We will not be seeing each other until I walk down the aisle. Our CH doesn't start until about 4 hours later, so we will have enough time for pics. However, we will both be at our CH. We refuse to miss it.

We are doing all posed photos before the ceremony -- then again, since this is a Jewish ceremony, we actually sign the Jewish marriage license before the ceremony anyway, so we have to see each other then.

FH & I will not be seeing each other before the ceremony. We haven't figured out times and what have you....but we plan on having a gap large enough for pictures before the CH!

FH and I will see eachother before. My mom was upset with this but, we are getting married at the RH and we are paying for it ourselves. I want to do as many pics as we can before hand and then enjoy ourselves at the CH and greet everyone there!!!

We are not seeing each other before the ceremony. I don't want him to see me until the minute the church doors open and i start walking down the aisle. I have pictured that moment my entire life. Our ceremony is at 2:30 and i don't think i'll be starting the CH till 6:30 or 7 so that should give us plenty of time for transportation and to take pics before the CH even starts.
