Your wedding day is a day that you will never forget. It's a day filled with love, laughter, and tears. But, there's one moment that stands out amongst the rest- the first look… with your dad, with your bridesmaids, and with your soon to be significant other.

Many couples debate whether or not they should do a first look, but we be have a few reasons why we think they are the way to go!!

Your wedding day is going to be a whirlwind of emotion and activity. With all the ceremony and reception details to look after, it can be hard to find a moment to truly connect with your partner. When you have a first look, it's like taking a moment of respite in all the craziness. You can pause, soak in the day, and just enjoy the company of your partner.

The first look is incredibly private and intimate. It's a moment just for you two, so you can express all the love, emotion, and anticipation that you feel without worrying about the rest of the guests. This intimate moment allows you to enjoy all the little details of the day, from the way the sunlight falls on your partner's face to the scent of their perfume.

A first look allows you to take some of the pressure off. Walking down the aisle can be nerve-wracking, especially when you’re going to be in front of so many people. Doing a first look means that you get to release all your nervous energy and emotions with your partner, rather than bottling them up until you walk down the aisle.

Doing a first look gives you more opportunities to capture beautiful photos. Without the pressure of the ceremony or reception timeline, we can take more time to capture those perfect moments. This means we can get all the couple’s portraits done before the ceremony, giving you more time to enjoy your guests.

The first look moment is like a sneak peek into your future. You'll see your partner in all their wedding day glory, and it's a moment that you’ll both remember forever. Seeing your partner in their wedding attire for the first time is a precious memory that you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Doing a first look will undoubtedly add to the experience of your wedding day. The moment is intimate, emotional, and offers an escape from the busyness of the day. You'll be able to create memories, enjoy a private moment with your partner, and capture beautiful photos that you will cherish forever. At the end of the day, it's a personal choice – but in my experience, the first look is always the best part of the wedding day.
