I am getting married at the Swan Club at 5pm. I would like to take pictures before the cermony at 3pm.
It will be dark after the ceremony. Is anyone else doing this ??
Thank you.

I am! Our ceremony is at 5:00 and the sun starts to set at 5:52 that day. I don't want to make the ceremony earlier so we are taking pics before. My FMIL is not exactly thrilled...

Yes my ceremony starts at 6:30 on a friday night so we will be doing pictures before hand!

I will--the ceremony and reception are on a boat and I don't want people mulling about, so we will do it earlier!

FH and I are talking about this. I want to take a few pictures before--me with my family, bms, etc., and FH with his groomsmen, family, etc., so that all we'll have after the ceremony are the group pictures, so that we can enjoy some of our cocktail hour.

I think we are too! I definetly want to attend my cocktail hour. Plus- I think it will calm my nerves to see him before the ceremony-I'm going to have enough stress in front of all those people!!!

We are taking pictures before our ceremony because it is in the same location and we want to be able to enjoy our cocktail hour.

We are taking pics before our 12 pm ceremony too, so we can enjoy the whole party. I dont want to be pulled away and I dont want my bridal party or family to be pulled away either. Everyone should be able to enjoy the cocktail party and all this food we are getting-and the drinks of course!!!!

I wanted to and he didn't but I finally convinced him. I want to be able to walk into my coctail hour after I get married and not have to worry about taking pictures. So he caved in
I think it will be so much less stressfull
