As deep-rooted as waltzing or splitting the wedding cake, until a few years ago there was the tradition of make a tour of all the tables together with the photographer.

In this way, the bride and groom made sure to have the official photo with each family group and, while they were at it, they took the opportunity to exchange a few words with these people.

It's still a very practical idea from that point of view. However, many couples today consider it to be too static a style of photo, which is why prefer to try something different What's good in both cases?

If you like the classic style and prefer not to break with the rite table by table, then there are a few tips you can take to enhance the experience.

For example, you can take the tour or before you start eating or at the end of the meal It really depends on how many people there are, but the important thing is to avoid having messy tables or half-served dishes in the pictures.

Now, if they will do it at the end of the banquet, announce it on the microphone Otherwise, if they start to leave to smoke or go to other tables to chat, some photos will still be incomplete.

A bonus of maintaining this tradition? You will be able to immortalize, in passing, the wedding decorations placed on the tables, whether flowers, candles, bird cages, embroidered napkins, centerpieces and table markers, among other elements that you have chosen with such devotion.

Different photos

If you definitely they are not convinced by the idea If you don't want to take the photos table by table, then there are many other proposals that you can put into practice. For example, take advantage of the cocktail party to have your photo taken with the different groups, in a more playful and spontaneous style.

Unlike the photos on the tables, which do not allow for different poses other than some sitting and others standing, in this case the photographer will have considerably more freedom to play around and incorporate elements such as the bridal glasses or the bouquet of flowers, and your photos will turn out amazing!

However, if you prefer something a little more organized, then hire a photo call according to the theme of your wedding and invite everyone to come forward for the official photo.

Remember that the photo call corresponds to a support -backdrop or giant frame-, that allows you to take group photos You can even add a red carpet and railings to the structure if you want to add a touch of glamour to the party.

Different from what it is the photo both or photo booth which will also be a great idea to incorporate into your wedding if you wish to give out funny snapshots .

And among other ideas to replace the tour of the tables, you can put together interesting generational photos of all men (boyfriend, father, father-in-law, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces) and all women (girlfriend, mother, mother-in-law, aunts, cousins), as well as postcards with the different groups For example, bride and groom and co-workers posing on a staircase; bride and groom and college friends in front of the pool; bride and bridesmaids in the bar area; and so on.

The idea is that have the places previously defined so that they don't waste precious time searching at the moment. And, above all, that they don't lose inform the photographer of your photo intentions.

The photos with your guests will undoubtedly be the most important, but don't forget to ask your photographer to record the details of your own making, for example, the chalkboards with love phrases that you wrote yourselves or the wedding ribbons that your guests will take home as a souvenir. They will love to relive these meaningful elements in the future.
