Planning a Hamilton Wedding? A Few Things to Keep in Mind
• Consider your wedding-day locations
Hamilton covers a large area, from downtown and the waterfront to Dundas, Ancaster, Stoney Creek and the escarpment.
If your getting-ready location, ceremony and reception are in different places, allow enough time for travel when building your timeline.
• Take advantage of Hamilton's natural surroundings
Hamilton has gardens, waterfront locations, historic properties and escarpment landscapes that can add variety to your wedding photographs.
If your venue has outdoor spaces, consider building a short portrait session into your timeline rather than trying to fit everything into the reception schedule.
• Plan portraits around natural light
If outdoor portraits are important to you, consider when the best natural light will be available.
Your photographer can help you find the right time for portraits so they feel relaxed rather than rushed.
• Leave room for genuine moments
The best photographs and films often happen between the scheduled events.
A little breathing room gives you time to enjoy your guests and allows your photographer and videographer to capture the moments you didn't plan for.
