When it comes to your wedding day, everything must be accounted for and well-planned. This includes the detail shots of your big day. These pictures may seem insignificant, but they help capture the essence of your wedding and bring back memories you may have forgotten. Here are the top three things all brides should consider packing for the wedding detail photos.
1. Jewelry
Your wedding ensemble is not complete without the perfect jewelry. Your engagement ring and wedding band are a must, but consider adding a beautiful necklace, earrings, and bracelet to your list. These pieces add elegance and a wow-factor to your detail shots. In addition, have your bridesmaids bring any jewelry you have gifted them. When styled together, these pieces create a cohesive look that elevates your photos.
2. Sentimental items:
Photographing sentimental items on the wedding day, particularly something borrowed, example: your grandmother's necklace or ring or grandfather's watch, is a way to commemorate the special meaning these items hold. It can also serve as a way to honor the individuals who lent or passed down the item, such as a family heirloom, and can add an extra layer of meaning and significance to the wedding day. Additionally, capturing these items in photos can serve as a lasting memory that can be passed down through generations, preserving the history and tradition of the family and their special objects.
3. Invitation suite
Your invitation suite doubles as your wedding's style guide. It features the colors, fonts, and theme of your wedding. When captured in detail shots, this suite becomes the central focus, setting the tone for the rest of the day. Consider packing your invitation suite along with other stationery pieces such as the menu, program, and any signage. These visuals help create a harmonious atmosphere, and help tie together all your wedding details.
Your wedding day is part of your journey as a couple. It's important to remember every detail, no matter how small. These items help tell your story and add a personal touch to your wedding detail shots. Pack these essentials in a small bag and hand it off to your wedding photographer. With these items in hand, they will be able to capture the essence of your wedding day perfectly
