Melanie & Andre’s Casino NB wedding – Moncton Wedding Photographer » Philip Boudreau – Moncton Headshot, Portrait and Corporate Photographer

The day started out with a bit of panic regarding the weather. The last few days leading up to the wedding, the weather was calling for rain and thunder showers and that just plain sucks for a wedding day! While the sun was nowhere in sight that morning, it seemed as if the rain was going to hold off… that is until I took the dress out of the tree after getting that first shot bellow! However, like most weddings, mother nature cooperated and the rain stopped just in time for the first look.

I have to say, Melanie was a bit sceptical about having a first look when I first met them over a year ago. However, after explaining the numerous benefits (not to mention it would have been way too rushed doing the photos after the ceremony), Melanie was excited about the first look and couldn’t wait to see Andre during that private special moment. It gave us lots of time for photos and once the ceremony was done, they managed to enjoy a few hours with the wedding party, have a quick bite and take advantage of that huge limo! She even confirmed it was a decision she was happy she made!
