My name is Barbara Esses and I do events for a living. I'm Ruthie Hecht; I'm an event planner
and I work with and for my mother. We're going to teach you the do's and don'ts for the perfect
wedding.
When hiring a photographer one has the ability to go through the highlights of the day in
advance. So you make sure the photographer does not miss any of the key moments. Probably
the most important is when the bride and groom see each other for the first time. So there
should be a specific time and place for that so that you don't end up passing each other
in the elevator or the hallway or wherever you have to be. You also want to see everybody
walking down the isle. You want to see the kiss. You want to see the first dance, cake
cutting and any expressions on the bride and groom's faces when anybody is making a speech.

If you give the photographer a list of who the most important people of the wedding are,
then chances are you will get pictures with them. But they are not mind readers so the
more written information you give the photographer for the day of the wedding, the happier you'll
be at the end of the night.
