Catch your Breath
Taking a breather before the ceremony gives you time to calm your nerves and to be present in the moment. You won't regret setting aside a sliver of time for this!

7:45-7:50pm
Mmmmm... Cake
Who doesn't love dessert? The suspense of the first piece of cake is one of my favorite moments to capture. Will it be a gentle and sweet gesture, or cake smashed everywhere? :)
7:50-8:05pm
First Dances
Mother and son dance and father and daughter dance, along with the newlywed first dance, are memories that you'll never want to forget!
