What Is A Wedding Day Detail Box?

First and foremost, what is a detail box?

It’s a box with all of your treasured wedding day items in it, ready for me to photograph on the big day. Usually, it includes wedding and engagement rings, any jewelry you plan on wearing, family heirlooms, veils, shoes, bouquets, invitations, etc. 

What items are important to you?

Prior to the wedding day, I ask my couples to begin thinking about what details they would like to have photographed. Then, I ask that on the day of the wedding they have all of these items in one box for me.

This helps me immensely. Not only can I get to work as soon as I arrive (rather than interrupt your hair and makeup to ask where things are) but I will also know what items are most important to you.

Incorporate your theme

To add unifying elements throughout your photos, consider adding stylized elements to your detail box. These items can be from your centerpieces, decor, loose florals, or personal items.

Have fun with this task and incorporate special items from relatives or that one piece of wedding decor that you just had to have, and enjoy knowing that these memories will be preserved for you.
