Why Prague is Perfect for Pre-Wedding Photography?
You've just gotten engaged, and now begins months of dreaming and planning every detail of your wedding. While pre-wedding photos might feel like an extra task on your to-do list, trust me when I say that having your pre-wedding photos taken in Prague could be the best decision you make.
Prague provides excellent value for travelers compared to other European cities. You'll find that your money goes further here. Additionally, Prague offers a wide range of budget-friendly accommodations, dining options, and attractions, making it an ideal destination for those looking to experience Europe without breaking the bank.
Prague is incredibly scenic, with stunning palaces, lovely cathedrals, charming streets, and a beautiful river flanked by bridges and swans. Its diverse architecture from different eras adds to its allure, making it a perfect backdrop for memorable pre-wedding photos.
If you're keen on pre-wedding photos against a medieval castle backdrop, Prague makes it effortless. The Czech Republic's compact size means top castles are just a couple of hours away. Unlike France, where a five-hour road trip is the norm, here you can spend more time capturing stunning shots than traveling.
Frequently Asked Questions About Pre-Wedding Photography in Prague.

The ideal time for pre-wedding photography in Prague is from the end of April to the end of October. If you don't mind bundling up, consider the Christmas season when Prague is beautifully decorated and you might even get a snowy backdrop.
Than sunrise time of course. Please keep in mind that it differs for different season. In April sunrise time is 6am, in July 5am, in October 7:30am. This is the time when sun rises above the gorizont. But it also needs some time to rise above the buildings in the city.
