Hi,

For those who get the bride sitting on the ground for pictures, do you bring a matt or towel or anything else for her to sit on ?
I am always relunctant to ger her to sit on anything as you can never guarantee a relatively clean dress when she gets back up :confused:

And I would not want an angry bride in a dirty dress on my hands for the rest of the day...

thanks

I always carry a black towel around for these moments. Just make sure its tucked away before you start snapping away ;-)a

I carry 3 or 4 cream and white towels. I fold up 1 for her to sit on and place the others around under her. Never want the grass to be wet and soak thru either!!
