Picture this: your wedding at an event center in Mission, TX is finally here! You’ve dreamed, planned and worked hard for this moment. You walk down the aisle, say your vows, and go in for the big one: the first kiss of your marriage. But wait? Your suddenly worried! Will your photographer perfectly capture the moment?!  

 
Rather than worrying about if your first kiss will be captured in dreamy, romantic photographs, use these expert tips for how to perfectly photograph your first kiss:  

  • Practice Makes Perfect – It might seem silly to practice kissing your partner. After all, you probably do it all the time. But your first kiss is different, and therefore needs a little practice. Think about how you want the kiss to be - quick and polite, dramatic, sweet, traditional – and then practice it. What’s wrong with a little extra kissing, anyway?  

  • Tell Your Officiant – Nothing can ruin a first kiss picture more than an officiant that’s in the way. Be sure to have a conversation with your officiant about your first kiss plan to ensure that they’re up to speed with what you want them to do. Make it clear if you want them to move or stay centered and be sure to remind them to not make a silly or distracting face.  

  • Hold for Three Seconds – The last thing you want is a kiss that’s too quick for your photographer to capture. To be safe, hold your kiss for at least three second. This way, your photographer (and videographer if you have one), will have more than enough time to snap some pictures.  

  • Kiss and Dip – If you want to get a little more dramatic, try a kiss and dip. Start out with a traditional kiss, then slowly move it into a dip That way, you can have two different kinds of kisses and pictures. Don’t forget to think about how a dip will work with your outfit (no one wants a wardrobe malfunction). And also, be sure to practice.  

  • Aisle Kiss – Walking back up the aisle to the cheers of your loved ones is wonderful, but it’s made even better if you do a mid-aisle kiss. Your guests are sure to erupt in another huge cheer, and it’s a fun addition to make sure you get even more romantic kissing pictures. If you want to do a mid-aisle kiss, be sure to tell your photographer and videographer so they can be prepared to capture the moment.  

 
No matter what, your first kiss is a moment you’ll want to remember always. Even if you don’t get the “perfect” show, the moment will still be perfect because it’s one that celebrates your love and commitment.
