Six Reasons You Should Consider Doing a Bridal Portrait Session at Carolina Country Weddings in Charlotte, NC

Bridal Portrait Sessions at Carolina Country Weddings in Charlotte, NC are something that you wont want to skip and here’s why:

  1. The bridal portrait session serves as a dress rehearsal for your wedding day. Since you only get one shot at your big day, many brides find it stress-relieving and fun to have a trial run.


2. This session is the perfect opportunity to make the most of your hair and makeup trial. Once you’ve received the pictures, you'll have a better idea if the look you chose is truly the one you want or if adjustments need to be made to your bridal style and cosmetics for your wedding day.


3. A scheduled portrait session provides a deadline for your seamstress to complete your dress alterations well in advance of your wedding day. If your dress doesn’t fit properly, wouldn’t it be better to discover this when there’s still time to fix it? Additionally, this session gives you a chance to practice bustling your dress. Sometimes, we encounter dresses where the bustle isn't properly designed, which can create an awkward situation on your big day. At the very least, it will speed up the bustling process on your wedding day since your team will have had some practice.


4. It gives your photographer a chance to explore the venue, allowing them to create a more accurate photography plan for your wedding day. It also helps you create your “must have” wedding day shot list.

5. And let’s be honest, it’s a blast! Enjoy another day in your dream wedding dress!


6. Being a bride is one of the most anticipated and cherished moments in a woman’s life. Your bridal portrait captures that special time, freezing it so you can relive it whenever you want (and your partner will love it too!). Your experience as a bride is a once-in-a-lifetime memory. Your favorite bridal portrait will be treasured not only by you but by generations to come.
