Question
Can I take pictures during the ceremony?
Answer
We are having an "Unplugged Ceremony". This means that we are asking all phones and devices to be put away and on silent during the ceremony. We have hired a professional to capture some of the most important moments of our day and we would hate to have a well meaning person's phone blocking that moment for them to capture. After the ceremony is complete, feel free to take as many photos as you'd like! We kindly ask that you stay out of the photographers way so he is able to capture everything as well. If you take any photos or videos during the reception, please share them with us. We will be sure to share our ceremony photos as soon as they are released.
