First, don't worry about getting into trouble for having the alcohol on campus! I have never run into any problems, they understand this is a staple moment for grads. If you're still a little on edge about it, sparkling cider will also give us an awesome spray!
The champagne pop is so much fun! It's a celebratory moment for yourself and those who came to support you! We will plan to do the pop at the very end of the session. I know this will probably loosen you up the most BUT I can't risk it getting all over you and ruining your outfit/makeup/hair for the rest of the session. We will make sure to plan your outfits and locations around where you want to do your pop at!
Let's start with a nice list of do's and don'ts!
- I suggest going with the Andre' bottle for an easy open and more controlled spray
- If you haven't popped champagne before, consider bringing 2 bottles just in case
- NEVER take your thumb away from the opening/hole, your thumb is there to create a beautiful spray pattern. Think back to when you played with the water hose outside, making the water spray in all types of ways.... that's what we're going for!
- It all happens so fast, sometimes the surprise makes us want to throw our head back and create a double chin. Make sure you're thinking about your poses and facial expressions throughout the spray. I love a cute leg kick!
- After the spray has finished, you'll have the option to do a waterfall pour... my second favorite shot!
