Each photographer have different vision so the first point must be choose the style you like after see several kinds.
I think is important too at least have a call or better and interview with the photographer and check if you "connect" with him. The photographer will spend long time with you during your big day and as this is about feelings I think is important have good feeling with the photographer. -
