Our Top 4 Benefits of Having a First Look

We get asked this question often: “Should we have a first look?” We understand that this decision is deeply personal, and we know that a first look isn’t for everyone. If you’re still on the fence or looking for more information, here are our top four benefits of having a first look.

1. An intimate moment

A first look offers a unique opportunity to share a private, intimate moment for just the two of you. It’s a time filled with raw emotion, and the moment is often beautifully captured in photos, creating memories you’ll treasure forever.

2. Reduces Anxiety

Walking down the aisle can be one of the most nerve-wracking parts of the day. Many couples have shared how seeing their partner beforehand helped ease their nerves. A first look gives you the chance to comfort each other and calm any pre-ceremony jitters.

3. Your most beloved photo

It's no surprise that some of the most cherished wedding photos come from the first look. When browsing wedding galleries, you'll often see those beautiful, emotional moments make their way to the forefront.

4. More time with guests

Having a first look before the ceremony allows you to take wedding party photos ahead of time. This means you’ll have more time to relax and mingle with your guests during cocktail hour.

At the end of the day, we just want you to be happy with whichever decision you make! At Trivino, we offer photography and videography services.
