I recently posted a caption on Instagram on how to get the best first kiss photo… and man oh man people LOVED IT!

So why not make it another permanent post on the blog?😉

Practice these 5 tips as you go in for your first kiss after your officiant announces you husband and wife, and you’ll get some KILLER photos!

5 ways to make sure you get the best first kiss photo as husband and wife:

💋 1. Hold it for a few seconds.


💋 2. Kiss a couple times and take it all in. I mean you just sealed the deal!


💋 3. Ask your officiant to move out of the way when they pronounce you husband and wife. Trust me, you won’t want them behind you in the photos.


💋 4. I always say kiss and smile after. This makes for the CUTEST photos!


💋 5. Half way down the aisle, stop and do a little dip kiss. These are my personal favorites!
