1. Write Your Vows
There's a way to elevate your ceremony photos: invest in vow books. These can add a polished, cohesive touch to your wedding photos.
2. Have An Unplugged Ceremony
Don’t just have a sign. Have your officiant make an announcement before the ceremony begins, reminding guests to put away their devices.
3. Remember To Smile
Share the Moment: Walking down the aisle is not just about reaching the altar; it's about sharing your happiness with everyone present. Your smile and confident demeanor will enhance this shared experience. Plus, it’ll great on photos.
4. Keep Your Bouquet Low
Keep your bouquet around your belly button or slightly above your hips. This position allows your upper body to remain open and relaxed, enhancing your posture and ensuring your dress is fully visible.
5. Face & Look At Each Other
Yes, I've had clients spend about 70% of the ceremony looking at the officiant.
Remember to face and look at each other as much as possible. This powerful gesture can deepen the emotional connection between you and your partner and enhance the intimacy of the moment.
6. Ask Your Officiant to Step Aside
Key tip for the officiant: Start walking away even before you start saying “By the power vested in me by the state of [State]”. This small adjustment ensures that your photographer has an unobstructed view of the two of you.
7. Practice Your First Kiss
Start by discussing with your partner how you'd like the kiss to look – a gentle peck, a lingering embrace, or something in between. Practicing helps you both feel more comfortable and ensures you won’t be nervous or awkward in the moment.
Hold the kiss for 3 seconds to give your photographer ample time to capture the moment from different angles.
8. Practice the Dip & Kiss (While Exiting the Aisle)
Pay attention to your footing and hand placement to avoid any mishaps. The person doing the dipping should bend their knees slightly and keep a firm yet gentle grip on their partner, while the one being dipped should lean back confidently, trusting their partner to support them.
