Other important information and suggestions
Booking Your Wedding Day
Most couples will contact photographers early to guarantee a booking, especially if their wedding is during the Spring and Summer months. If you are having trouble finding a Saturday available, consider having your wedding and reception on a Friday evening or Sunday afternoon. You may find easier availability of all services required for your wedding.
There are several ways to book advent for your wedding day. You can email or phone us with your booking. You may also make an appointment to meet and discuss details of your wedding day.
Suggested Order of Formal Photos
After the ceremony, photos generally begin with the groom, his groomsmen, and the groom's side of the family. Second would be the bride, the bridesmaids, and the bride's side of the family.
At the conclusion of the bride's side, both families are brought together for a group photo. Photos are then taken of the bridal party, followed by just the bride and groom to finish the session.
Depending on the size of the wedding party and the families, this session generally takes from 1 to 1.5 hours.
Ceremony Pictures
Ceremonies can last anywhere from 10 minutes to 1.5 hours. The start of the ceremony is usually indicated by the seating of the mother of the bride by the ushers. Photos of the bridal party walking down the aisle (processional)
will be taken individually or with escorts. Of course, this includes the bride and her escort.
Traditional ceremony photos may include the brides arrival, the ring exchange, exchanging of vows, lighting the unity candle, communion, signing of documents, the kiss, etc. We also like to take candid and special effects
pictures during the ceremony. A lot depends on the lighting and size of the ceremony area.
Unless otherwise instructed, we generally like to be close to the ceremony area so as to get the best quality shots. Generally, the last pictures to be taken are the kiss, siging the register, and the recessional.
Receiving Lines (Waratah Package only)
Will there be time for a receiving line after the ceremony?
Two things should be considered:
(1) The number of guests attending the ceremony, and
(2) How much time you have before you must leave the church.
For 100-150 guests, it takes about 15 to 20 minutes to do a receiving line. If you decide to have a receiving line
after the ceremony, candid pictures will be taken of you greeting your guests as they leave.
Receiving Line Alternatives (Waratah Package only)
If having a receiving line after the ceremony will take away too much time, the most popular alternative is greeting your guests at the reception.
This can be done by the bride and groom after they finish eating. Traditionally the bride and groom would lead a buffet line or be served first for a sit-down dinner, so will be finished eating before their guests. This will leave time for the bride and groom to walk around to the various tables (while the guests finish eating) and greet their guests. We will follow you around and get candid pictures of you interacting with your guests. This usually provides great candid pictures and great memories of your wedding!
As an alternative advent can work with any creative concepts you come up with for your wedding day. Please feel free to discuss your ideas with us prior to booking your photography package.
Reception Photos
If we are booked to come to your reception, and within the Package timeframe, we will take a variety of traditional photographs, including arriving at the reception venue, cutting of the cake, bridal waltz and speeches. Should you require something different please let us know.
Reception Time
Only the Grevillea (B) and Waratah (C) Packages include the reception. Package B provides for the first two hours of your reception and Package C provides for the first three hours.
Extra Time
Will you stay longer at the reception if I need more time? If we have no other weddings booked after yours, we come prepared to stay longer if needed.
If you have booked the Wattle Package (A) and on the day decide you need extra time, you can request an upgrade to the Grevilla (B) or Waratah (C) Packages which will provide additional hours and additional pictures. Should you wish for more than 3 hours coverage of your reception, each additional hour will be charged at $150.00 + gst.
Travel & Parking Fees
For locations around the Sydney Metro area there are no travel fees. For venues requiring paid parking, this cost will be added to the Package price. For outer Sydney and country areas, travel and parking fees will be applicable which will be advised prior to booking. We can also book weddings out of state and in these cases we will negotiate travel expenses with you.
