Wedding Details Tip-What to Pack and How to Prepare

Documenting my couple's wedding details is my favorite way to begin wedding day coverage. It's when I collect all the prettiness and style these precious objects to help tell the story of the big day. Let's talk Wedding Details shall we!?...

Wedding details and my styling approach will vary depending on the couple , and there is no right or wrong. The key here is to have your wedding details already organized and ready to hand over to your photographer (me, hehe) when I arrive. This way we can protect time and not waste it with you frantically digging through your luggage last minute. I'm for you, I'm here to help make this easy. Voila this will help you feel prepared!   I especially want to respect your beauty team who will most likely be finishing up makeup/hair touches at this time and we want to avoid cutting into their time. Below is a general list of  what to have ready when coverage begins;

Bridal Details 

• Wedding Dress on a photo ready hanger if possible
• Shoes
• Veil
• Accessories/Jewelry
• Invitation Suite/ Paper Goods 
• Vow Book
• Perfume
• Flower Bouquet
• Engagement Ring & BOTH bands (this means I need all the rings in one place)
• Loose Florals provided by your florist (This is not necessary but looks amazing. Ask your florist ahead of time if this is possible for the invitation styling)
• Anything else sentimental

For James & Robyn's details, she was actually getting ready at their home which had dark granite floors. Perfect background to style their Starry-Night Invitation/Details.

This technique involves the veil has a foreground and background visual element styled with perfume and jewelry.

For my brides who would rather a pop of color as a backdrop, here I used a bridesmaids dress! Traci also packed little crystal gems for a Glam look.

You are officially prepared for wedding detail photos! Think about the overall style and color scheme of your wedding and just imagine how GORGEOUS the details will look when styled all together.  Keep in mind however, second photographers will style and photograph details with their own creative eye. If you wish to have me style all the details we can discuss that option!

Happy wedding planning! xo
