Digital cameras offer the amateur photographer a great opportunity in wedding photography. The quality of photos made possible by digital photography is astounding.

After all, when are all your friends and relatives going to again be all dressed up and gathered in one place?

Some Tips:

- Consider your background before snapping your photos. Sometimes amateur photographers focus completely on the subject without taking a look at the negative space behind and around the subject. Is there a lot of clutter? Is there too much activity and distraction that will be included in your picture if you snap and shoot now? Try to find a place where your subjects have calm, unobtrusive backgrounds.

Selecting Your Wedding Colors

May 17, 2008

Color can be used in so many ways for weddings. From an accent color to the main color theme used in everything from the bridal party dresses to the table cloths and napkins at the reception. It is up to you how much color, or how little color, you want.

Should you use your favorite color for your wedding theme? What happens if your favorite color is yellow and your wedding is in the winter? It’s still your wedding and your choice if you want to use yellow, but you may not want to use yellow as the main wedding color but more of an accent color such as the mini roses in the bouquets or as the ribbon around your wedding favor.

Some of the prettiest weddings we’ve seen have used multiple colors or shades of the same color throughout the planning of their weddings to the actual event. One color is used for the bridal shower, another color for the ceremony, followed by combining the colors for the reception. It’s actually a very easy thing to do that will result in spectacular look.

If you are the modern type of couples but you want to experience a traditional touch in your bridal concept, perhaps you might want to go to a hotel venue through a horse carriage rather than a bridal car and serve in the reception native dishes and entertain the crowd with folk and classical entertainment. Or if you are both sports lovers and your guests are also sports enthusiasts, perhaps you might want to rent a stadium and conduct the ceremony and the reception there.

May 4, 2008

Planning a wedding is not easy! When you first begin planning a wedding, there are so many forks in the road, a multitude of decisions to make, and so many ways to go astray. At this amazing and crazy time in your life, take a minute to step back, relax and organize your thoughts. Get a grip on the project you have just undertaken, follow some seemingly simple steps, and planning a wedding can be a wonderful and memorable experience.

Establish a budget, stick to it and don’t deviate.

This is often a neglected characteristic of planning a wedding. It is essential to get your budget in order before making any financial decisions. Too often, many couples book a reception location or a wedding day professionals without solid financials in hand, only to find out they have overspent and are now bound by a contract.
Big tip: Use a number for the budget that is 10-15% less than what you actually plan on spending, so you essentially have a buffer when additional expenses arise, because they will. The great thing is that if you don’t use your entire buffer, you will have some extra spending money for your honeymoon.
