Erin and DJ wanted to spend their time after their May 7 ceremony on a limo cruise with their bridal party to do on location photo shoots, away from their ceremony and reception site.
This is becoming more and more common with our couples. It really makes the photo shoot as part of the celebration of the day instead of a limited time between the ceremony and reception which sometimes is rushed.
Some things to think about if you think you want to incorporate this into your wedding day:
1. It usually works best to have just your bridal party along for the ride. Trying to coordinate family too is really tough.
2. Schedule your reception to start at least 1.5 - 2 hours after your ceremony. That way you won't miss out on the party and your guests won't be wondering where you are.
3. Rent a limo, shuttle or trolley to take your bridal party from place to place. Make sure it can fit everyone and leaves space for the photographer and maybe their assistant if needed.
4. Scout locations with your photographer before the big day. No sense trying to figure out where to go on the fly and your limo driver will appreciate the heads up.
5. If you and your bridal party would like to indulge in a little liquid cheer in the limo(champagne,etc), try to stay away from drinks that stain like red wine or other dark liquors.
Here are some of my favorites from Erin and DJ's photo cruise. We hit the jackpot with this abandoned train station and the life-like soda fountain sculpture, both in downtown Wichita, KS.
What's new, fresh and fun at Kate Gardiner Photography in St. Augustine, Florida!
