Poll

Ok, I need people's opinion because I can't make up my mind on this one. My bridals are next week and I can't decide if I should bring Hal and do bridals/groomals. I am torn because I don't want him to see my awesome dress, but also I love the way that the pictures turn out. So give me your opinion so maybe I can make up my mind.

My vote, have him be there too! :) I would want to do that with Scott too...I don't really like pictures of JUST me though, anyways and! The whole dress thing is kind of a random superstition anyways, like me getting married on the 13th ;) Hehe...I can't wait to see them! You are GORGEOUS! :)

I figure that you both will be in all sorts of pictures on your actual wedding day, so I would vote having you just do your bridals alone. That way, he'll be even more lovestruck seeing how stunning you are in your wedding dress in person :)

Also, I personally would be more nervous if someone was there with me watching me get all the pictures done...I always feel awkward taking pictures of just me in front of other people...

I kinda agree with Traci - I didn't get bridals cuz I didn't want to be all by myself, and I would have loved to have more pics of the two of us together without family.

dude, I can't believe I haven't thought of this yet. There is a growing trend in the industry to do a photo session with your photographer AFTER your wedding with the both of you in your wedding clothes. A lot of couples find that it is less stressful and that they get better, more relaxed and more unique pictures that way.

If you decided to do that you would get all the lovely pictures you want with all built up excitement of him not seeing you in the dress till the day of. (you wouldn't have those for your reception, but you's have them everyday after for the rest of your life.) And having spoken with many brides on the issue of the surprise, the ones who didn't have the surprise said they didn't regret it or notice anything. BUT the girls that did have the surprise usually said that it was a pretty spectacular thing that they wouldn't have traded.

Recap on suprise: you'll love it if you do, but you wouldn't know you were missing anything if you didn't.

Recap on photos: I think you should get the photos on a non wedding day whether you do them before or after.

I don't know if that helps or not, but I hope so. :)
