Congratulations on your engagement! This exciting phase marks the beginning of a new chapter in your life together. As a wedding photography studio, we’ve been privileged to share in the joy of many newly engaged couples, and we’ve gathered some key advice to help you navigate this exciting time. Here are our some of our top tips for newly engaged couples:
1. Tackle the Big Conversations Early
Before diving into the depths of wedding planning, it’s crucial to have some important discussions. Topics like your wedding budget, the size of your wedding, and general expectations are foundational. These conversations might not be the most fun part of wedding planning, but they are essential in aligning your visions and ensuring a smoother journey towards your big day.
2. Keep an Open Mind
It’s common for couples to think they know exactly what the other wants. However, assumptions can lead to misunderstandings. Take the time to openly discuss your dream wedding elements, no matter how certain you think you are of each other’s desires. You might be surprised at what you learn about each other’s preferences!
3. Limit the Outside Noise
Once you announce your engagement, you’ll likely receive a flood of advice and opinions. While some of it can be valuable, remember that this is your wedding. Not every piece of advice will be right for your vision or your relationship. It’s okay to listen, but you don’t need to take everyone’s opinions to heart.
4. Say Yes to Engagement Photos
Celebrating your engagement with a dedicated photo session is not just about getting great pictures; it’s an opportunity to commemorate this special time in your relationship. Plus, engagement sessions are an excellent way for you to connect with your wedding photographer before your wedding. This experience helps iron out any camera shyness and lets you get comfortable with being photographed before the big day. You’ll also have the chance to see how your photographer works and build a rapport that will make your wedding day photography feel seamless and natural.
