Part X: Say Cheese… Family Photos!

December 19th, 2008 @ 5:56 pm by Mrs. Pinot Noir

During the second half of the cocktail hour we did our group pictures on the terrace overlooking the valley. I know that group pictures are not the most exciting part of the recap, so I will try to keep this on the shorter side. As an extra added bonus (and to make this post more exciting), I will include the list I gave our photographer of the formal shots. When I was making the list I really tried to strike a balance of getting all the shots we would want without going overboard.

All photos by Jim Forneris Photography



I’ve broken down the formal portraits into three sections: bride’s family, groom’s family, and wedding party. In this post I will do the family photos and the wedding party photos will be in the next post. And don’t worry, I didn’t include every formal picture!

Bride’s Family

  • Bride with mother
  • Bride with father
  • Bride with both parents
  • Bride & groom with bride’s parents
  • Bride with Godparents
  • Bride with brothers
  • Bride & groom with bride’s family

Groom’s Family

  • Groom with mother
  • Groom with father
  • Bride & groom with groom’s parents
  • Groom with siblings
  • Bride & groom with groom’s family


Formal photos are really time consuming and to be honest, a little boring, but you still want a nice shot with everyone. If we had all the time in the world I would have liked to take a photo with each of our guests!

Did you have a hard time making a list of the formal photos that you wanted?

Next up, the wedding party!
