I'm doing this. I really didn't want to miss the cocktail hour to take pictures.

Yes, definitely. It's a Jewish ceremony, so we have to sign the Ketubah before the actual wedding. I also want to take pics beforehand when it's light out, and we can all enjoy the CH.

Same with mine....its actually why we decided to have the ceremony in a church instead of the RH.

We're doing it! We don't want to miss our CH and a lot of people say it was great b/c it's more intimate (not 200 guests watching you) & it makes you less nervous during the ceremony.

A lot of people want that moment coming down the aisle...either way will be amazing! It's whatever you and FH feel comfortable with.

We are doing this. It was a hard decision bc FH and I really didnt want to see each other before the actual ceremony BUT we also want great pictures without missing the cocktail hour.

Re: Seeing each other before the ceremony?

we are most likely doing pictures before for the same reasons. We will probably doing our wedding at the Rh hall and i want pics at another location if possible.

We're doing pics before the ceremony so, we're over the whole not seeing eachother thing. we really want to enjoy CH and take pics during the daylight.

We did. I was upset at first at the thought, but honestly, it makes sooo much more sense. Plus, I still had those nervous butterflies walking down the aisle anyway! It's an amazing feeling whether or not you see your FH beforehand!

We are! We are still going to do a reveal (and will be more intimate than with all 250 guests). We want to spend as much of the day together as possible. Our ceremony is not until 730 and we want to take picture before while its sunny and enjoy cocktail hour with each other and our guests. Plus as Lisa said, we are signing a chetubah before the ceremony anyway so we were going to see each other regardless.

Not doing it! Like a few other ladies I want FH to see my walking down the isle for the first time in my wedding dress.

But church is at 2:00 and Cocktail hour isnt until 5:30 so we have time in between to take pictures and what not and still enjoy our cocktail hour.

Re: Seeing each other before the ceremony?

fh won't see me till I'm walking down the aisle. ceremony is at 3 and cocktail hr is at 7 which leaves plenty of time for pics.
