Glasses or no glasses for wedding pictures?

I still have time, I'm not planning on getting married until May 2013, but I've been wondering if I should wear my glasses in my wedding pictures or contacts.  I wear my glasses all the time, but I used to wear contacts from time to time for special occasions.  So of course, when I am not wearing my glasses, I think I look weird because I am so used to the way I look with my glasses on, but the few times I've worn contacts everyone tells me that I look so much better without them.

So basically... wiill my pictures probably turn out better if I don't wear glasses?  I know it's ultimately my decision, but I'm curious what other people's experiences have been.  My fiance also wears glasses, he has never and will never wear contacts.  Thanks for your help!

    How about wearing your glasses, but take them off for some pictures? I'm sure you can see a little without them. Right after they snap photos you can put them back on.

    I wear glasses all the time too. I figured that 1) I'm spending a lot of money on my make up and I want people to see it. 2) I don't want to be cleaning my glasses all night if they get dirty. 3) I don't want my glasses to possibly glare in the photos. So that's why I'm choosing to wear contacts.

    My H has glasses, and doesn't even own contacts, but if he did, I think it wouldn't have looked like him at our wedding if he didn't have his glasses.  We didn't have any problems with glare in the pictures.  If you wore contacts and glasses both equally, I'd say go for contacts, but if you pretty much only wear glasses, I think you should stick with glasses so you're still recognizable as you.
