MK Bridal Portait Session & Morning Weddings

[MeghanEmily]

We're considering an Epcot Escape summer wedding at the Canada Terrace, and so our ceremony would need to be at 9am. We'd also like to book a MK bridal portrait session, so I was just curious if anyone had ever done one the same morning before such an early wedding before, or if we'd need to schedule it for a different morning. If the day is available, I'd love to only have to do hair/makeup/dress once and not refresh my bouquet, but that seems like it would be pretty tight if possible at all.

We didn't have a morning wedding, but if it helps you with a timeline at all our photos were done by 8 am (they have to be for MK to open). Good luck!

I was considering this but with a later ceremony time, so cannot help you with timeline, but I read the streets of MK are wet in the am and can dirty the dress.

I've seen lots of folks do this. Some things to consider:

• The streets of the MK will be wet, so the hem of your gown will get dirty
  
• Pickup times vary — if park management changes the time that they allow DFAP to start the shoot, it might not coincide with your ceremony so well
• It is a looooong day, but since you'll already be getting up early for an Epcot wedding, this won't affect you as much
• You will need to do your first look with the Disney photographer in the lobby of your resort

Thanks, all! Will definitely consider these things and ask our consultant about it.
