An acquaintance of Mr. M and myself, whose a photographer will be taking our wedding pictures on our wedding day as her gift to us, so she’s doing it for FREE! Do we send her an invitation? Our wedding ceremony and reception is for family only.. Well be having a reception for friends ag the beginning of the year.. So do we invite her to our reception with family? Our reception will be casual, at a restaurant.. The same restaurant Mr M and I had our first date.. Drinks and hourderves.. Also, what gift should we get her, do we get her one?
Thanks bees in advance 🙂

I would def invite her and for a gift, acknowledging her and thanking her to in your speach would be great and you might throw in a gift card for somewhere that she likes to go.

Yes!! I would definitely send her an invite. I would either get her a gift card or a coach wristlet. (Cant go wrong witha wristlet!)

Well, I would assume you’d want reception pictures too? But either way yes, it is expected to invite the photographer- our photographer actually has in her contract that if they’re staying through dinner they must be served the same meal as the other guests.
Do you or Fiance know enough to get her a personal gift, or maybe know someone that could advise you? Otherwise I’m sure a giftcard and a thank you note would be welcomed 🙂
