Ultimate Wedding Detail Flat Lay Checklist With Pro-Tips!
Picture this: you’re in the final weeks before your wedding and you need to start gathering items for your wedding detail flat lay photographs, but you have no idea what to include. Well, look no further, I have the ulimate wedding detail flat lay checklist for you.
As a Massachusetts Wedding Photographer, I give this list to every single one of my brides so they can reference it as they’re prepping for their big day.
For the Bride:
- Dress
- Shoes
- Coat / Shawl
- Specialty Hanger Veil
- Hair Accessories
- Rings (Engagement & Wedding Ring)
- Jewelry
- Perfume
- Bouquet*
- Special Momentos
- Gifts between the two of you
- Vow Book
- Invitations / Save The Dates
For the Groom:
- Suit / Tux
- Shoes
- Specialty Hanger
- Tie / Bow Tie / Tie Clip
- Cufflinks
- Ring (Wedding Ring)
- Watch and/or other accessories
- Cologne
- Boutonnière
- Special Momentos
- Gifts between the two of you
- Vow Book
- Invitations / Save The Dates
PRO TIP #1: Put all these items in a shoe box or bag and give to your Maid of Honor or Best Man for your wedding day. That way, you won’t have to gather these items while you’re in the middle of getting ready.
PRO TIP #2: *If possible to ask your florist for floral cuttings or styling blooms. Rather than just adding your bouqet in the mix, having cuttings will help your photographer include florals throughout the whole flat lay.
PRO TIP #3: Let your photographer know if your wedding has a particular theme. For example, if you two are big on adventure & traveling, let your photographer know! They could include stamps, find a map of the location you’re in, or they might have a compass they could add to make it more personal to you as a couple.
