BONUS SHOT IDEAS THAT ARE PRESENTLY TRENDING:

CHAMPAGNE TOWER:

This would add a celebrity touch to your fine celebrations and would be an elegant activity to add to the fun and sharing of the day.

VINTAGE CAR:

While vintage cars have long been part of weddings, lately we are seeing the trend of vintage convertibles and rare cars that create a sense of nostalgia and personal touch. Create a statement, arrive in style, its your special day and it only happens once.

FIREWORKS:

How spectacular it would be to treat your guests with an elaborate presentation of fireworks, it would simply be breathtaking and something truly memorable.

SPLASHING CHAMPAGNE and drinking out of the bottle:

Having fun and being a bit silly in fact being yourself and making the most of your wedding day is a must.

NIGHT TIME FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY:

Flash photography is back in fashion and putting some time aside to take these pics in-between your reception would be a great idea and would add diversity to the portraits in your wedding album. These images are moody and atmospheric, so don’t be shy, go all out and share your loving intimacy to accentuate them.

PHOTO DASH:

So this new trend is where the couples take pictures with all their guests over a 2-3min song played by the DJ. They request their guest to form groups and as the song plays they move from one group to another and while it sounds quite cheesy, it can be a lot of fun and also a good way of capturing memories will all the guests on the day specially if its big wedding.
