Trending Now: Alternatives to the Classic First Look Photos

First Look.... one of my favorite moments on a wedding day. I usually suggest the couple to have their first look done privately, why? Because such a special moment when seeing each other the first time (on wedding their day) should be intimate and extra-special. So take a few minutes to let loose those emotions, and let them flow with tears, waves of laughter, and that subtle look in each other's eyes. 

Reading vows or exchanging gifts to each other is another way of doing a first look as well. Without all the eyes on you, the couple can genuinely grasp each other's affections and let go of all the stress and worries for just a few minutes.

Here are 8 trending alternatives for your first looks:

  1. Spend the morning together. 

  2. Ditch the dress.

  3. Keep it private. 

  4. Exchange your vows before the ceremony.

  5. Include the whole gang.

  6. Invite your family.

  7. Arrange a drive-by.

  8. Reverse the timeline.
