5. VENUE ENTRANCE
A venue’s exterior details make for a great
photograph. Weathered, arched, carved
or gilded, doors are a striking decorative
element that needs no extra flourish —
though customizing them with a wreath or
your initials done in flowers is a nice touch.
The doors are symbolic of opening and
closing a new chapter in the bride’s and
groom’s lives.
6. NEWLYWEDS WITH THEIR
GRANDPARENTS
If you love your Nonni and PopPop, ask
your photographer to snap a few shots
of you with them so you can always
remember their joy at being part of your
wedding day. Make sure your groom does
the same with his grandparents.
7. SPECIAL-INTEREST
GROUPS
Your sorority sisters haven’t
all been together since
graduation day but they’re
planning to attend your
wedding en masse – you
need a group shot of this
historic moment! Same
goes for other not-often-
together cliques like your
first cousins, former
coworkers and high
school besties.
8. SILLY SIBLINGS WITH THE
BRIDE/GROOM
Growing up with your siblings was a crazy,
love ‘em/hate ‘em kind of experience that
you wouldn’t change for anything.
These photos can be beautiful, but also
ridiculously stupid and still work. Gather
your sibs for a group hug and say cheese!
9. BRIDE AND GROOM LISTENING
TO THE TOASTS
Funny, poignant, embarrassing, heartfelt
–wedding toasts allow some of your closest
family and friends to pay tribute to you both
on your special day.
To remember the best moments, your
photographer should take pictures of the
speakers as well as your expressions as you’re
listening.
