Why You Should Plan 15 Minutes Alone Together On Your Wedding Day: Wedding Wednesday

One of the biggest thing couples tell me after their wedding is just how quickly the day flies by. Between greeting guests, taking photos, and celebrating with family, it is easy to realize you barely had a moment alone with your new spouse. It's important to make sure you are taking time for just the two of you on your wedding day.

How do you fit in that time? Here are four easy places where you can just focus on each other.

• During your first look before the ceremony.

• During dinner.

• During sunset portraits.

• Taking a few private moments right after the ceremony or right before your reception entrance.

Why It Matters

Not only does it give you a chance to breathe and soak everything in but these quiet moments often produce some of the most genuine, emotional photographs of the entire day.

Instead of smiling for everyone else, you finally get to smile at each other.

Photographer Tip

Plan these moments into your timeline and keep your wedding planner in the loop. They can make sure guests and family keep their distance so you can enjoy this moment togehter.
