Are you wondering what should be on your wedding details checklist? Or maybe you are asking, Mattie, what are you even talking about?! Let’s start with a few pictures you give you an idea <3.
Ok, you have an idea now that you see some examples, right? Wedding details are a part of YOUR story! You have spent a LOT of time picking every little detail for your dream day – the colors, each piece of jewelry, your florals, your dress! You’ll want to allocate an hour of your photography time to capture these images. In order to maximize the time, ask your florist to deliver florals before your photographer arrives. To elevate your detail images, I highly recommend asking your florist to also include loose florals (a few extra of each type of flower) so your photographer can use these in your images.
In order to keep your wedding day stress-free and organized, I recommend preparing a box in advance with your details. All you’ll need to add that morning is your gorgeous engagement ring!
Here are the recommended essentials:
- Bridal Gown
- Special Hanger
- Loose Florals
- Veil
- Shoes
- Garter
- Jewelry
- Perfume
- All 3 Rings
- Invitation Suite
- Bouquets
- Boutonnieres
- Bridesmaid Dresses
If you’d like to add some extra items, you could also include:
- Ring Box (Personalized or Coordinating Colors)
- Styling Items (Extra Ribbon, Trays, etc.)
- Heirlooms
- Groom’s Details (Cuff Links, Tie Clip, etc.)
Gathering these items in advance will help your detail photos go smoothly and ensure that you have these gorgeous images to add to your wedding story. If you get a chance, send me an email or message with your wedding colors in advance, and I can also see what styling items I have that would add to your images. Your details are going to be GORGEOUS! Ahhhhh, I can’t wait for your special day!
