Penar & Cem

Looking for a truly unforgettable and incredible wedding day experience? Nothing beats the magical and atmospheric scenery of Prague as the sun begins to break above the city of 100 spires on your wedding day!

Penar & Cem did just that. They fell in love on an earlier visit and when we met up a few days before their wedding they were shocked with the insane amount of tourists. It was to be a small wedding with only cose family & friends and a portrait session. Nothing fancy just two people in love with a city they fell in love with. But the tourists and their timeline crushed their spirits. After getting to know then a bit more I asked them if they would consider getting up early and having a pre sunrise start. Their smiles said it all. Their only concern, the schedule and especially the hair makeup for not only them but for their family members. A quick phone call to Linda Chudmilova and it was settled. The family were also quite happy to get up early and meet up in the square before the wedding as well. Sometimes fate does have a way of making things work for the very best when you least expect it.

The day of their wedding starting out beautifully as the sky turne from darkness to a deep blue and then for a few moments mother nature provided us with a wondderful palette of colors. These two like a more staged look and we captured those motifs as well as gave them time to walk around and explore on their own. As the sunlight changes so quickly the atmosphere we walked to the Old Town Square and just in time. This picture of them cuddling up as the sun light breaks above the sky behind them is one of my faves. The light hitting the tower where the Astronomical Clock was where they were looking. A few moments later and the square startet to fill with photographers and couples from Asia. We could only smile as we walked past to sit down in front of the Astonomical Clock to enjoy the sights and sounds of a medieval square coming alive.

I have been receiving more queries about this type of wedding coverage - to be honest, if you can manage it - it truly is an experience that exceeds the typical wedding in the city of Prague. They key is making sure your wedding ceremony is either at 10 am or 12 as afterwards most couples have a lunch with their family & friends and then an afternoon break (nap) before the start of their evening. This is not for everyone but for those couples who are eloping or having a very small wedding with a few family & friends - this is really the best way to experience such an incredible city and making it your city - on your wedding day.
