Many couples now opt for writing their own vows, which is just one way of adding a personal touch to the ceremony. Theme weddings or weddings that incorporate the ethnic background of the bride or groom are becoming very popular as well. Rings Many couples have wedding bands custom made from metals like platinum, sterling silver, or white gold. Platinum is also the metal of choice for male engagement rings, which have been gaining popularity recently. In the last few years, couples began leaving disposable cameras on reception tables.
Guests can help document the whole evening that way.
The problem is that this can get expensive, depending on how large your event is. Consider having guests bring their own cameras and giving them rolls of film to shoot during the ceremony or reception. Trends in professional photography include less formally posed shots. Some photographers like to add interest by using black and white film or by using sepia filters for an old-timey look. Honeymoons Consider having your wedding at your honeymoon destination.
