We took as many family photos as possible bf.
The chassan kallah took some private photos after. And we didn�t get every pic we wanted so some were taken after. But from end of chuppah till first dance was around 40 min.
I�ve been to two weddings this year were the first dance started 10:15. I usually leave weddings at that time so I made sure that didn�t happen.
I expected to get attitude from the chassan kallah, but they we�re surprisingly excited bc they wanted as many people as possible at the dancing so they wanted to keep the dancing as early as possible.
It�s amazing what becomes indoctrinated into our religion as �Halacha�. Not seeing the kallah isn�t Halacha.
