The day you have been waiting for your entire life is almost here! After all the preparations you made, you may be looking forward to just walking down the aisle and marrying your other half. However, it pays to remember that your wedding photos are yet to be taken. These photos will immortalize the entire event, so you must get great ones!
To ensure that you end up with beautiful photos to put into your wedding album, you need to ensure that you give your photographer what they need. If you want to be sure that pictures of you walking down the aisle are nothing short of perfect, this article is for you!
Tips to Remember When Walking Down the Aisle
One of the most awaited highlights of a wedding is seeing the blushing bride walk down the aisle. To ensure that you get great pictures and enjoy your walk down to meet your life partner at the altar, here are a few tips to remember when walking down the aisle.
1 – Stand Up Straight
All eyes will be on you when you take the glorious walk down the aisle. This is why you have to make it a point to stand straight while you walk. Standing straight will help you look around at people you might know sitting in the pews and will allow the photographer to take stunning pictures of you as you make your way to the front of the aisle.
2 – Walk at Normal Pace
Walk naturally, at a normal pace. This will allow you to take the entire scene in and enjoy the moment for what it is. Take care not to walk too fast or too slow.
3 – Don’t Hold Your Bouquet too High
Don’t hold your bouquet at chest level. Aside from it looking unnatural, holding your bouquet too high may make it difficult for photographers to capture good shots of you walking down the aisle. Feel free to look around, holding the bouquet low as you walk. We recommend holding it around your navel area. This will also be true when you take photos with your family and bridesmaids before and after the ceremony.
4 – Be Mindful of Your Gown
Many times, brides may trip over their gown as they walk down the aisle. This is true for women who choose to wear long gowns and trains that touch the floor. Being mindful of your gown will help you keep safe from stepping on the bottom of the dress as you walk. You may fix your gown as needed while you walk to ensure that it doesn’t get in the way of your next step.
Conclusion
Here is a bonus tip for you: Smile! This may sound like useless advice, but many brides do forget to smile when they walk down the aisle! Since this is supposed to be the happiest day of your life, you should show your best smile so that this unforgettable moment will be caught on film! You will be feeling elated, with emotions rushing through your system even before you start your walk down the aisle anyway. When you see your future spouse waiting for you, just let all those feelings show while you walk to them. Why not let them show?
