How To Get The Best Detail Shots Of Your Wedding Day


We love a good flat lay, and if bridal magazines are any indication, everyone else does too! They might look effortless, but a beautiful flat lay (staged details laid flat) actually takes a lot of prep. Here are a few things you should set aside ahead of time to ensure your photographer and videographer get amazing shots!


Your personal details

  • Shoes

  • Accessories (jewelry, hair piece, cufflinks, tie, tie clip, veil, socks, etc...)

  • Bouquet/boutonniere

  • Invitation set + envelope

  • Wedding day perfume or cologne

Good props

  • Pretty hangers

  • Decorative trays

  • Hand mirrors

  • Silk ribbons in your wedding colors

  • Greenery or flower clippings

  • Perfume or cologne bottles

  • Any little trinket or item that has special value to you

The best flay lay shots include props that reflect you and your wedding day. Help your photo and video teams get the BEST shots by coming prepared with the items above set aside and ready for your vendors.
