If you have come up here, it shows that you are interested in documenting the best moments of your D-day. And let me tell you that even the mundane moments can become most fun when you look back at them years later.

Planning is necessary

The first step before documenting anything is planning. Skipping the planning part is where there are higher chances of going wrong. Come up with some ideas of how you want your wedding photos or videos to be like. Take help from websites, blogs, magazines or the internet, as these sources are full of creative ideas.

Pre-made journal

This is the first and easiest place to start with. A pre-made journal allows you to fill in the blanks for special memories or events. They are designed in a way that makes it seamless for you to fill the memories of each day or each month. Use the journal to write your thoughts, milestones and memories of your wedding journey. You can also use this journal to collect signatures or wishes of the guests coming to attend your big day. A pre-made journal is like a tangible keepsake that you can revisit and keep with yourself for the years to come.

Choose a guestbook

You might think that a guestbook is an extra addition, but it is not so. One of the best ways to document and preserve your wedding memories is through the video guestbook. No one can beat the happiness that comes from seeing the wishes of your favorite people. And how can you do that? By selecting a video guestbook to capture the memorable moments. During the celebrations, your loved ones can record their sincere wishes straight from their phones by scanning a QR code and sharing their heartfelt messages. You can then put these little clips of video together and edit them however you want to make a unique wedding video guestbook.. Thus, digital guestbooks are definitely something that you will hold close.

Disposable camera

Hiring a professional and experienced photographer is something that you can’t avoid to document your wedding. But what about the fun and candid moments that you want to document in between? Or moments that may have otherwise gone unnoticed? That is what disposable cameras are meant for. They add the element of surprise and spontaneity. Buying and carrying a disposable camera to all parts of your wedding is a cost-effective option to capture the fun and imperfect moments of your wedding celebration. After all, you want to reminisce these memories forever. Make a scrapbook of all the pictures you have taken with your disposable camera to preserve as a wedding keepsake.  

Framing your vows

You don’t want to forget your wedding vows because these are the promises that you will stick to your whole life and that will keep you and your partner together. So why not consider preserving them in a creative way? Frame these words and put them somewhere where you both can see them daily. These will make you remember your beautiful day and the bond you share. Or you can also get the vows calligraphed onto the beautiful piece of artwork to adorn your home.

Communication is the key

Last but not least, you need to communicate well with your photographer and videographer to tell them exactly what you want out of this documentation. Share the ideas that you already have in your mind with them. Often, the couple don’t communicate clearly with the videographers or photographers. And when they don’t get the desired results, disappointment is bound to happen. So, let them clearly know the ideas you have before your wedding.

Final Thoughts

The few ideas listed above are some surefire ways to creatively document your wedding event. Think outside the box and be as creative as you can. After all, documenting your wedding is the pathway to creating a treasure trove of nostalgia that you will cherish your entire life.
