It worked out great for us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1167171 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 19:35:31 +0000 jhd 1167171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did a first look &amp; had pictures taken. I wouldn't change a thing about it. It was a perfect, private moment I will always remember. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166958 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 18:22:21 +0000 sosaysmegan 1166958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup-- we did a first look and about 95% of our formal (posed) pictures before the ceremony, which meant we were able to enjoy every second of the big party we'd planned for over a year. Seeing each other before I walked down the aisle didn't make it any less special; if anything, it did a lot to calm our nerves (we are NOT center-of-attention people). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166954 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 18:20:58 +0000 GrapeCrush 1166954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I wanted a first look aka more picture time. But DH was adamant that he see me for the first time as I walked down the aisle </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166897 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 17:53:26 +0000 MamaJ 1166897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did the same as @JennyLayneAZ: </p> <p>I wanted to do a first look but DH didn't so we didn't :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166860 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 17:27:20 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 1166860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sort of. We spent the morning together, then split up to get ready and didn't see each other until I was walking down the aisle :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166839 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 17:18:15 +0000 birdofafeather 1166839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we did! we had a first look a) because i'm a photographer and knew it was essential to our sanity/timeline/getting good photos b) i was so anxious to see him, i was practically bouncing off the walls!</p> <p>i'm so glad we did it because we had tons of time for photos, got all our group pictures ton beforehand and i could concentrate on DH when i was walking down the aisle. i could also look around and see all our friends and family! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166817 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 17:08:22 +0000 dolphin 1166817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did a first look and so glad we did! I loved how intimate it felt -- just the two of us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166811 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 17:04:22 +0000 Sadieloo 1166811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did! It was great yo share that moment with just the two of us and our photog. It also allowed us to take pics beforehand and enjoy the reception with our guests. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166795 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:55:25 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1166795@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't. I didn't even talk to him that day until the ceremony. Neither of us wanted to do a first look. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166777 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:45:50 +0000 Ash 1166777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a first look and it was the best thing ever! It was still emotional and exciting when I walked down the aisle even though we spent the few hours before together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166772 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:42:45 +0000 indi 1166772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did. We spent the night before in our honeymoon suite, and then after breakfast he went to go get ready with the guys and the girls all came to our room to help me get ready. Then we did our first look, got to enjoy lunch together, and knock out the majority of the photos. </p> <p>I'm so glad we did, because our photographer rode with us to the ceremony but our bridal party's car prank made it so she was unable to ride back with us. We would have missed so many photos if we didn't do them beforehand! Plus, we got to spend the day relaxing with one another and settling our nerves before the ceremony. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166771 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:42:32 +0000 LuLu Mom 1166771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a first look, logistics just didn't' work out to wait! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166766 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:40:35 +0000 lioneyes 1166766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we did a first look/pictures together, and actually went and had a cocktail before the ceremony. i was so nervous the whole day until i saw him, then i was calm. cannot imagine not having those few hours together just the 2 of us before the wedding! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166757 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:34:36 +0000 Bookish 1166757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! We went to Vegas so it was sort of unavoidable ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166736 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:22:49 +0000 Running Elley 1166736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! I kind of wanted a first look but DH was very anti seeing each other before the wedding so we went without it. I loved seeing him for the first time when I walked down the aisle :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166732 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:21:32 +0000 loopedd 1166732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did! We did first look pics and I am soooooo glad we did. I was so nervous that I was about to barf, but when I saw him and we had time together before the ceremony I was far more relaxed. I didn't think it made the walk down the aisle any less special, either. That's a moment I'll always remember too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166724 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:18:28 +0000 Mrs. Cookie 1166724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a romantic rainy first look outside and I'm in love with the pictures from that moment! Our wedding didn't start until 4 PM, I didn't want to wait that long to see him! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166706 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:12:23 +0000 autumnlove 1166706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! We stayed in same hotel room and did a first look </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166692 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 16:06:10 +0000 MrsH 1166692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a first look and pictures around the city beforehand - some of my favorite pictures! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166667 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 15:54:42 +0000 Dandelion 1166667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep...we got married on our back patio, in shorts and tshirts, so there was nothing formal about our wedding day, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166663 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 15:54:17 +0000 artsyfartsy 1166663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't. I just wanted to preserve that special moment and keep it traditional. Actually I can't remember how I felt when I saw him. The whole day is a blur! We went ahead and let our guests eat while we took pictures with the bridal party. So we got to do all of our pictures we wanted without making anyone wait. I got mine with my bridesmaids before the wedding and same with him and his groomsmen. So that knocked some time off.</p> <p>DH has always been my BFF and we do everything together. Spending a whole day (we got married at 5:30pm) without talking to him was torture! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166660 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 15:52:27 +0000 HellOnHeels 1166660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did a first look and took 95% of our pictures before the ceremony.

We woke up together and then I went to a different hotel to get ready. We also did a first look and drove to the beach ceremony together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-and-your-dh-see-each-other-before-the-wedding#post-1166652 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 15:49:31 +0000 Mrsbells 1166652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I dont like the idea of a first look, I didnt want him to see me in my dress til I was walking down the aisle. </p>
