You’re paying for gorgeous wedding photos – so You’re paying for gorgeous wedding photos – so make sure you get them. Avoid these mistakes to ensure your wedding day is truly picture-perfect: “Don't send your photographer a laundry list of poses that you want to capture on the wedding day. Instead, send some inspirational photos of the general feel you are going for – maybe three to five inspirational photos.” - @agoodaffair “You’ll want to ensure that you’ve got a copy of your invitation suite for those detailed shots. Other items to consider include a pretty ring box, extra florals, and ribbon – which you can ask your florist to provide! Make sure your bridal suite is tidy and clutter-free.” - @honeyfitzevents “Create a cohesive look for your getting-ready photos!” - @lerose_online “Couples should hire a photographer who they feel comfortable with, who they trust and above all, hire a photographer whose photos they love. Consider editing style (bring, dark and moody, natural) and consider their photography approach and style.” - @elizabethlutzdesign “Our pro tip would be splurging to have an on-site hair and makeup team member stay on throughout the evening for touch-ups!” - @infiniteevents_ “Work with your photographer to ensure that they have all of the time they need on the wedding day to be successful.” - @hummingbirdwed See these tips and others from @luckeleven_events @generationtux @infiniteevents_ and @lerose_online on our latest article (see link in bio).

Check out what they said when we asked what advice they’d give to couples in the planning process. 🥹 “Your wedding is the only day of your life that you should both have the same memories together.

Knowing the difference in a florist and a floral d Knowing the difference in a florist and a floral designer is super important when it comes to manifesting your destination wedding design vision! 🌹🌸🌷🌻 “It is best to ask each florist how involved he or she will be with the florals and beyond for your wedding and make sure that aligns with how involved you want him or her to be. Also, make sure to ask what each florist’s style of design is, because one is unique in how they arrange and design. You want that uniqueness to coalesce with your style preference.” - @karentranevents Don’t forget to SAVE THIS POST to remember! 🥰
