There are so many options when it comes to planning your perfect wedding in Philadelphia. Your wedding –and every detail of it—should reflect the two of you and your personalities, styles and preferences.

When deciding on your wedding ceremony site, keep in mind the overall feel you want your wedding to have. The lavish Talamore Country Club, the award-winning formal gardens of The Radnor Hotel, the natural elegance of The French Manor or the outdoor simplicity of The Wedding Chapel are all great venues, but which one has the atmosphere you desire on your wedding day?

The same is true for caterers. With so many amazing caterers in Philly, you have a great variety to choose from to find one that suits your needs, wants and your budget. Make appointments to meet with the caterers and taste their food to determine which one is right for you.

Choosing the right Philadelphia photographer for your wedding is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. When making inquiries about wedding packages, ask for references of others who have used their services—and contact them! Was the photographer and staff easy to work with? Did they listen to their client’s wants and needs or just do their own thing? Did the client feel they got great service and great wedding photos? These are important questions to ask in determining who will record in pictures this most special occasion in your life.

We all know what we like when it comes to photography. Certain things just catch our eye. The same is true of wedding photography. It's so easy to get lost in the romance and magic of the wedding when flipping through the photo album. It's enough that we instantly "ooo," "awww," and share the pictures with our closest friends. It's this exciting time to relive fine memories that makes having the ideal wedding photographs so important. To get the most from your wedding photography package, here are the top 3 most important questions to ask your Philadelphia PA wedding photographer.

What packages are available? -- Obviously there will be many wedding packages to choose from with Philadelphia wedding photographers. Package items can range from a small amount of snapshots and prints to a large amount of photos and prints with digital enhancement and unique photography techniques. For this reason, it is important to discuss with your wedding photographer which package best fits your ceremony.

*Remember:  The size, location, and budget are the biggest factors in the selection to bring this information to your consultation.*

What digital techniques and enhancements are available? -- See a great black and white shot of a bride holding her full-color bouquet? These and other unique techniques enhance photos for more memorable, valuable shots. Discuss unique wedding photography ideas that you like with your Philadelphia wedding photographer such as black and white wedding photos, sepia tone and other colored photos, unique bridal portraits, collages and more.

Which portions of the wedding are covered in this package? -- While most Philadelphia wedding photographers cover pre-ceremony to post-reception, many prefer to include certain time frames into specific pacakages. For instance, the wedding ceremony and reception may be included in one package while another package includes photos of the wedding part in a different location.

*Remember:  Most wedding photo packages are based on the number of photographs taken as well as the number of locations. A greater number of set-ups and material costs ups the price of the package, so don't be scared to talk with your Philadelphia PA wedding  photographer about which packages are right for your wedding.*

*Remember:  If also using a videographer, try to arrange at least one pre-wedding consultation with both professionals together. This will help solidify in your mind which packages are truly best for your wedding. A videographer may reduce the amount of pictures that you want in your package. Alternatively, a wedding photographer in Philadelphia  may be able to capture many moments of the entire wedding in a particular package while the videographer for the wedding may only include the ceremony or reception in the package.
