to do portraits or not?

I was just wondering the purpose of portraits. I don't want to have one displayed at my wedding so I guess I was just wondering if I should spend the $175 just to have them. What did you do with them? There will be tons of pictures from the wedding and it was really more important for me to do the boudoir session instead. Will I regret not doing them? Thanks!

    I didn't do them.  This was my second wedding and I didn't feel it was appropriate.  I always think of them as being more for traditional church weddings where the big portrait is displayed outside the sanctuary.

    I don't really regret not doing them but I am sad that I don't really have a picture of me alone in my dress that I love.  I was hoping to get one on the wedding day, and although I have a couple of me alone, I don't love them.
