This is the second wedding for both of us. We are having it in our home so we will see each other prior to the ceremony but not dressed for the wedding. My daughter-in-law had the type of wedding to my son that went totally by the book and she states that per Wedding Etiquete we are to take the pictures prior to the ceremony. I have gone to great lengths to ensure that the groom doesn't see my dress before hand. I want it to be the first time he sees me in my dress as I am walking into the room on the arm of my son and then take the pictures after the ceremony but before the cake. Is this something that is okay to do?? When should we take the wedding pictures?

Dear Melanie:
You can take your wedding pictures anytime you like; there is no etiquette, that I know of, that governs when the photoographs should be taken.
Speak to your wedding photographer about this. He/she is the professional and will help guide you through the process.

Hello Melanie
There is a way to have both. I have seen couples take the indivual photos and seperate bridal party photos prior to the ceremony, which cuts down on the time of photos directly after the ceremony. There could be a time of cocktails/snacks etc. while you are getting your pictures together. I would suggest individual family shots prior to the wedding too. Leaving ONLY bride and groom variation shots to be taken while the guests are sipping punch. Hope this helps.
