After the ceremony and the reception the only thing you will have left to remember your wedding are your wedding photos and wedding film. The first episode of this podcast we share two stories to get couples to think a little differently about why its important to have your wedding well documented.

This week's episode is all about first looks and first touches. A first look is when the bride and groom see each other before the actual wedding ceremony begins. In this episode, we explore different ways you can do it to make it special and personal. We also talk about first touches which are similar to a first look but the bride and groom don't see each other. The bride and groom are usually separated by a wall and have a moment where they touch hands.
