Leigh Skaggs Photography

I am a wedding and portrait photographer in Hampton Roads Virginia.

Don’t forget to feed the Bride!

Leigh Skaggs Wedding Photographer Virginia Beach Va.  The wedding day is  very hectic.  The Bride has so many things to think about.  She is juggling all the last-minute details.   Her mind is racing and she is trying to make sure that all of things she has been working on for the past year are going to run smoothly.  One thing she is NOT thinking about is eating.   On the wedding day, it is crucial that the Bride does not forget to eat.   This is where the Bridesmaids must step in.    Don’t just offer her something.  Physically, give her something to eat.  It doesn’t have to be a full five course meal, I know she wants her dress to fit perfectly, some fresh fruit, a cup of yogurt, even a small salad, are all good choices.   Helping the Bride to remember to eat will help her in many ways.   Having some food in her system will ensure that she is able to think about all those little details with a clear head, she won’t be so likely to sweat the small stuff, and it will keep her mood upbeat and excited.  When Bride’s don’t eat on the big day, they have more trouble focusing and this causes them stress.    And one thing that none of us want on the big day is a stressed out Bride.  So Bridesmaids, I am counting on you!  It may seem like a small insignificant detail, but I promise it will make all the difference in the world.   Feed your Bride!  And don’t forget to give her some water, too!  🙂                                                                                                                           Norfolk, Va Wedding Photography
