Learning from Wedding Day Mishaps
It's important to acknowledge that mistakes are merely lessons in disguise. However, learning these lessons on your wedding day can be challenging. As an experienced wedding photographer, I've noticed several recurring obstacles couples face due to factors such as planning, circumstances, or even life itself. Here are some examples:
- **Crossing your fingers for hair and makeup to wrap up quickly.** Don't let your beautification routine put a dent in your big day. The secret? Pad your schedule with extra time for those unexpected hiccups. Because let's face it, they always happen. Worst case scenario, sit back and relax with a mimosa, but don't risk cutting into your dress-up time for the ceremony.
- **Making the couple the superhero of all tasks.** We know it's hard to loosen the reins, but trust us on this one. Your wedding day will be way less stressful if you delegate a few tasks to your crew. Enlist your BFF, family, or a trusted helper to take on some of the responsibilities. Not only will they be happy to be part of your big day, but it'll give you more time to soak up the memories
- **Family or friends can be your biggest ally.** It's easy to get bogged down in the details, but don't forget to lean on your support system. Your friends and family are your cheerleaders, so why not let them lend a helping hand? Divide and conquer to keep everything running smoothly, and leave the troubleshooting to your trusty team. Because hey, it's your day to shine!
