A first sighting is a very popular trend that is rapidly catching on amongst many Colorado couples. Many brides and grooms are choosing to see each other before the ceremony, breaking old traditions and setting new ones.
While the decision is completely up to the bride and groom, there are many great reasons to choose a first sighting. The most important reason being, that the bride and groom get to genuinely react to each other. During a wedding ceremony, all though beautiful, it is formal and your groom is not able to run down the aisle to hold and kiss his bride. During a first sighting, no one is watching (except your photographer) and there are no rules. It is just genuine emotion that is caught on camera.
Another reason we at VERGE Photography have fallen in love with first sightings, is that we can control the lighting and location. We are able to produce stunning images of this sweet moment because we can find the perfect location.
A lot of couples have also enjoyed how first sightings have affected the timeline of their wedding day. With being able to take many photos before your ceremony, there is more time to enjoy your guest during the reception and cocktail hour. We love that couples will get to party and celebrate with their family and friends sooner!
