THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BRIDAL PORTRAITS

Bridal portraits! Do we want them? Do we need them? Heck yes!! Southern Bash is here to help guide you through this process.

Why do I need bridal portraits?

· Well, for one thing – your mom wants that photo of you!

· It is a great time for you to “practice” with your dress, shoes, undergarments, and hair and makeup style. You can then make any adjustments before your big day.

· Adding bridals into the timeline on the day of your wedding is a near impossibility. There is just not enough time.

When do I book bridals?

· We recommend booking these 2-3 months before your wedding so you have time to get edits back from the photographer and print one to have at your reception if you like.

What do I need to schedule for bridals?

· Hair and makeup

· Bouquet from your florist. Don’t be surprised if this is more expensive than your bouquet on your wedding day. Remember, on that day, your florist is ordering in bulk, so things are cheaper. If your florist can not do this for you, HEB and Market Street are great options.

· Venue – these do not have to be taken at your wedding venue – only if you want to!!

· Photographer

If you need help with scheduling, just let us know – we are here for you!

There you go – Bridals 101!!
