Most brides see the groom before they walk down the aisle, I will not do it, but if you don’t mind this is an option you may want to consider (take pics during the day of.. with FI).
Another option is to take pics during day time. Personally I am getting married in the afternoon but the photographer is coming at 1 at my house, so it will be really bright. No, it shouldn’t be a disaster just the passing time of the day.

We took our formal wedding pictures 2 months before our wedding. My husband actually helped pick out my dress. As you can tell, we are totally not superstitious and we are also still madly in love after 4 years. That’s not a lifetime by any means (except maybe among celebrity couples), but I would just encourage all the brides out there not to believe in superstitions on their wedding day. It takes a lot more than that to ruin a marriage.

Mrs. Bee…have you ever considered writing a wedding book?

Ha! We’re actually getting married the same day And we are running into the same problem! The only think you have to consider is that you may be taking that *moment* away from the groom. That moment, when he’s up there, nervous that you’re about the get married and he sees you for the first time walking down the isle. I know it sounds cheesy, but i’ve been to plenty of weddings where the bride and groom didn’t see each other beforehand, and that expression was priceless! In leiu of all that, we just decided that we were going to take pictures before the wedding. We decided that although that moment would be precious, we want fall foliage pictures, since our wedding is a fall themed.

as a photographer, i can tell you that taking your pictures after sunset is NOT a good idea. i would definitely say take pictures before hand. but if you REALLY don’t want to see each other before the ceremony, take as many pictures before hand then take the family shots inside a lit area
