Using Photos As Wedding Decorations

Brides often stress over wedding plans for months. With so many details to decide, planning a wedding can be less than fun. It doesn’t have to be difficult to find original ideas for wedding decorations however.

A new and creative idea for weddings is to use photo decorations. With a photo theme decor, brides can also easily make their decorations. Not only will their decorations be one of a kind, but photo theme wedding decorations are also very low-cost.

The traditional way for brides to document their guests in attendance is the guest book. To get an original record, however, brides can throw out the old-fashioned guest book and use a matted engagement photo for guests to sign. Unframed, guests can sign directly onto the matte. This fresh idea can finish as a great piece of art for the couple’s home.

For another photo theme decoration, the couple can include a photo table for guests to admire upon entering the wedding location. To elaborate on this idea, the couple can choose to use three tables. One table should have framed pictures of the bride as she grew up. The second should have the same for the groom. The third should include pictures of the couple together. This is an easy way for the couple to share their lives through pictures with their guests. Mothers love to help put these decorative tables together, so let the mothers of the couple participate as well.


A photo centerpiece for the reception table is another creative idea for brides to consider. Simply place framed pictures on the tables for the guests to enjoy. In addition to this idea, brides might also consider using photo albums for table centerpieces. These can entertain guests while they wait for the couple’s arrival. For extra flair, brides can choose photos of the couple with guests who will be sitting at that particular table.

As a tribute to their heritage, the couple can also create decorative collages of pictures including their parents, grandparents, and siblings. It is fun to use wedding photos from the parents’ and grandparents’ weddings to create a wedding photo collage. Being able to see how wedding style has changed over the years, and how family members have aged is a creative and entertaining way to include pictures in wedding decor.

Finally, a well-used prop is the disposable camera. Brides have been placing them on reception tables for years. The idea behind these cameras is to allow the guests to participate in the wedding by taking pictures themselves. The cameras are returned at the end of the night for the couple to develop and enjoy. This is a great idea due to the fact that professional photographers usually do not take pictures of the guests. This allows the couple to have documentation of everyone on their special day.

Using photos as wedding decorations is a great way to add creativity to your wedding. It gives a feeling of family and shows appreciation of heritage. These low-cost ideas are great ways to allow the couple to save money in the wedding budget as well. Photo wedding decorations are fresh and exciting ways to add originality to your wedding.
