5 Reasons to have a First Look

You can spend forever planning your wedding. But what really matters most is that ‘first look’ when your partner sees you for the first time. Months of preparation go into the big day – facials, dress decisons, dental visits, shoe dilemmas, underwear challenges, you name it!! The moment you think about most is when you see each other for the first time and that initial reaction.

The First Look is such a big part of American weddings. Since so many of our wedding couples come from the US, the ‘First Look’ photos are central in the wedding planning and our planning team are well equipped in making these moments as special as possible to ensure maximum effect.

It helps too that we have so many options inside the house and around the grounds to capture these precious moments, that will probably grace your walls or mantle pieces for years to come!

Here are our Top 5 Reasons To Have a ‘First Look’

  1. Be at your Drinks reception – you wont have to leave your guests waiting
  2. Have photos done and dusted – family will be glad to have the photos finished and it will allow you time to be creative with the photographer for couples shots
  3. Captured the magic of the first look – this is impossible to recreate and is so intimate
  4. Removes the stress of walking up the aisle – couples are more in the moment and relaxed if they have already seen each other
  5. Savour the last few intimate moments together before you become Mr + Mrs (Pass the Kleenex!)
