My wish for you on your wedding day, is to be open to giving yourself fully to each other and the time we carve out in your timeline for just you two. I’ve noticed that the time my couples have with me, their wedding photographer, tend to be the only real moments you have together without being surrounded by your wedding party and guests … the entire day. You put so much care and effort into making sure your guests have a wonderful time on your wedding day, and you should do the same for yourselves, too.
Put real, intentional thought into surrendering yourselves to the time we carve out in your day for just you two. Plan to be present, completely, for just one another. Make the decision ahead of time to do this for yourselves, so when you’re caught up in the lively celebration with friends and family and being pulled in different directions, you won’t have a hard time stepping away for the few minutes to enjoy this bit of “alone time”.
We’ll step away, take a quiet walk, capture some timeless, authentic moments of just the two of you … you’ll be thankful you did.
