Alternative to Disposable Cameras

Sunday, May 27th, 2007

With technology becoming more affordable, and more user friendly - a new trend is emerging for capturing photos at a wedding reception.

 The computer docking station allows you to set  up a laptop with a multi memory card reader - guests are encouraged to visit the computer station before they leave the reception for the night. They are encouraged to make a copy of their photos onto the laptop - so the bride and groom are able to immediately have access to hundreds of their guests photos.

Since so many email managers can’t handle emailing photos - this is a great way to ensure that everyone gets to share the photos!

For more information on how to set up your own computer docking station at your wedding - view our complete article here:

We’d love to know your comments if you have done this at your wedding!

Emergency Kit: Diaper Pins

Sunday, May 6th, 2007

When a bustle breaks or zipper snaps on a wedding dress - a regular safety pin just won’t hold. Diaper pins are larger (and can hold more fabric in it) and much stronger. With the security lid of the diaper pins, you can rest assured that the pin holding your zipper together at the back will not pop and end up stabbing you.

Always carry 2-4 diaper pins - so that when your bustle loop breaks, you can create a bustle from underneath your dress, using the diaper pins - so that you can enjoy dancing the night away without stepping on your dress every other step!
