Whether you’re sneaking up on your fiancé or going down the aisle, you’ll want every entrance you make on your wedding day a moment to remember. So when you start planning your memorable entrance for your big day, consider the following 5 tips. 

#1 Be sure your clothes fit you to a T. The shape of your attire will show up in all your photos and will play an important part in the ever popular silhouettes that are in almost all wedding photography collections. Before you finalize your fashion be sure you can walk, run, and dance in the clothes you are wearing. The price you pay for a tailor to take necessary tucks will definitely pay off in your photos.

#2 Arrive in a car, (boat or carriage) that fits your style. The photos will begin the moment you enter the scene, so think about your first impression. To pick the right ride for your memorable entrance check out our Wedding Transporation Guide featuring great ideas for your arrival that will make your guests take notice.

#3 Glide down the stairs for your ceremony or first look. If you have a beautiful stairway to make your way down, every step can be part of your memorable entrance. And if the stairway is particularly gorgeous it will make a great place for portraits and family photos.

#4 Pause for your guests before you head to the altar, leave the church, or enter the reception. Look around at the ones you love, and be sure to wait to move forward until eyes are on you. The time you take to take in what’s around you will help build excitement while your photographer captures all the anticipation of the moment.

#5 Stand tall and smile big. Your posture and expressions will speak volumes about how you're feeling. If you stay relaxed and in the moment, your photos will showcase you looking radiant and real. With 3,000+ photos taken at most weddings you never know when the shutter will click so keep your posture confident, let your joy shine through and trust your photographer.
