Why Bridal Boudoir is the BEST gift for your Spouse
Maybe you just got engaged (yay!) or have been planning your dream wedding for some time now… When it comes to wedding-planning priorities, booking the perfect wedding photographer, the perfect venue, deciding on beautiful flowers… is all on the list. But one that might not be on your radar? A boudoir shoot. For brides-to-be, this is an opportunity to not only take some time for yourself amidst the hustle and bustle of your wedding day, but to also create an amazing gift for your husband-to-be. Sure, getting your picture taken while posing in lingerie may seem intimidating, but with the right photographer and attitude, it can be a totally liberating experience! Here are just a few reasons to consider a bridal boudoir shoot.
To celebrate you
A boudoir shoot is a great way to celebrate yourself, to create some amazing photographs that reflect just how incredible you really are. It's often easy to get swept up with work and life. Sometimes the fire glows a little dimmer than it once did, and when that happens, having some great images of yourself to look back on can help reignite that flame within yourself. Imagine the power these images will have in 20, 30, even 50 years' time...when you can look back at these memories and see just how beautiful, confident, and sexy you were at this stage of your life. PLUS- you’ve worked hard to look your best on your wedding day. Celebrate your hard work by getting pampered and boosting your confidence all in one.
To make you feel empowered
One of the most important reasons to organize a boudoir session is simply that you are enough...as you are right now, without changing anything. It will empower you to feel more confident in your own skin—and that is invaluable! As mentioned above, a boudoir shoot is a great way to boost your self-confidence before your wedding. Looking back at the moments when you felt sexy and beautiful will remind you that it wasn’t just the dress, or the flowers that made you look amazing- it was all you!
It's an excuse to go lingerie shopping
Between securing the venue, photographer, caterer, band, and officiant (the list goes on and on...), planning your wedding can be all-consuming. Sometimes a bride-to-be just needs a break. And what better way to spend some well-deserved down time than lingerie shopping? After all, you're going to need a few pretty little things for your wedding night and honeymoon anyway.
It makes a great gift for your partner!
Your other half sees you at your best and worst (think, no sleep and bad hair)—and still thinks you're gorgeous. Imagine his face when you surprise him with an album full of provocative professional pics on your big day. Bridal boudoir photos are the wedding gift these days. I've had past brides gift their grooms an album on the morning of their wedding (they opened it in secret, of course—away from his parents and friends), and it's made for the most memorable gift. It’s intimate and a little secret between the two of you, which makes it even more special.
