10 Small Things You Can Do on Your Wedding Day to Make It Truly Memorable

10 Small Things You Can Do on Your Wedding Day to Make It Truly Unforgettable

Weddings don’t become meaningful because of big moments —
they become meaningful because of all the small, intentional choices you make along the way.

Here are 10 little things couples can do to elevate their experience (and their photos/film):

1. Write private vows or letters to each other.

Whether read privately or during your first look, these moments always create incredible emotion.

2. Schedule 10 minutes alone after the ceremony.

Just breathe together.
Tell each other everything you’re feeling.
Let it sink in that you're actually married.

3. Bring a personal detail or keepsake.

Something from your relationship, family, or history.
It photographs beautifully and adds meaning.

4. Choose music that actually feels like you.

Not what’s popular — what you love.
(Yes, DeadMau5 and Kygo totally allowed.)

5. Have a champagne moment.

A toast with your wedding party, a spray after the ceremony, or a quiet clink just the two of you.

6. Do a first look with someone special.

Mom, dad, sibling, grandparent — these moments are powerful.

7. Get ready in a clean, naturally lit room.

It makes a massive difference for photos AND your overall vibe.

8. Choose meaningful locations.

Your ceremony, first look, portraits — they feel better and photograph better when they mean something to you.

9. Build buffer time into your timeline.

Stress-free = more authentic moments.

10. Be present.

Laugh too much.
Cry if you want to.
Dance like crazy.
Forget about perfection.
Your energy is what makes the day unforgettable.

Final Thoughts

Your wedding is about more than a checklist — it’s about the two of you creating a day that feels like your love story.

If you want a photographer and videographer who helps keep things stress-free, fun, and meaningful, I’d love to capture your day.
