What is very important to remember when planning a temple wedding is that in most cases people like to begin their wedding day at another location close by. It is usually somewhere where the bride (and perhaps groom) can get ready in separate rooms, but then come together for a \u201cfirst look\u201d before launching into taking the bride and grooms photos, family photos, bridal party pics etc.\u00a0 While we can shoot some of this at a temple location, most people seem to prefer doing the bulk of the photos elsewhere. Of course, if photos under the chuppah are desired, then we would obviously be shooting those at the temple. Also, we can easily shoot many photos in the ballroom providing the d\u00e9cor is ready when we arrive. This is usually a great backdrop for a host of photos.<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_231\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-231\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-231 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/jeffkolodny.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/04.jpg\" alt=\"I just loved the old fence and had to shoot this!\" width=\"900\" height=\"725\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kolodnyphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/04.jpg 900w, https:\/\/kolodnyphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/04-600x483.jpg 600w, https:\/\/kolodnyphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/04-768x619.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-231\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Infrared Wedding Photograph with Split Tone Finish<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>In this weddings case, they were able to start at a home that had adequate shooting areas in and around the development. This is not always the case. Many people must book hotel rooms and use the hotel\u2019s lobby and grounds to shoot some of their photos before they arrive at the temple. With this in mind, you should carefully examine the hotel options in the area where you are getting married and try to pick a hotel that will suit all your needs. Price of course is usually a factor, but the look and ambiance of the hotel should also be a consideration if you are planning on doing a good number of your photos there. Also, the weather in South Florida can be unpredictable, so if it rains you want to make sure there is a decent alternative place to shoot in the location you pick. If not, plan on getting to the temple early and have your florist make sure the ballroom is ready so that you can use that for photos. After all, it is flowers that you paid for and arrangements you chose, so it really is an excellent place to use as a background for some of your photos.<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_232\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-232\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-232 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/jeffkolodny.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/05.jpg\" alt=\"Jewish wedding ceremony decor.\" width=\"900\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kolodnyphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/05.jpg 900w, https:\/\/kolodnyphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/05-600x405.jpg 600w, https:\/\/kolodnyphoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/05-768x519.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-232\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Temple wedding decor<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>We were thrilled to have been a part of this great wedding and would like to thank everyone involved for making it such a successful event!<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_233\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-233\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-233 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/jeffkolodny.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/06.jpg\" alt=\"By handing talits from past relatives bridal couple feel their past relatives are watching over as they get married.
