I’m so excited to share this checklist with you because not only will this totally help you get more prepared for your big day, but it will help us start off your day quickly and efficiently!
Your details were intentionally picked by you and help to tell the story of the day. It is important to me that I get all of those details while you are getting ready to get these out of the way before everything gets too crazy.

We once had a bride bring her grandmother’s hand mirror. This is completely optional – but if you have something sentimental you’d like styled with your details, we love including family heirlooms in our detail shots.
- Bonus: We’d love to have a few cuts of the florals you’ll be using throughout your wedding day. If your florist will supply us a small bucket of extra pieces we can incorporate those in your detail shots

RINGS
When we can, we always try to take a photo of your rings while you’re getting ready. If possible, try to have your engagement ring cleaned or clean it yourself. To clean at home, soak your ring in warm water with dishwashing soap for 20 to 40 minutes. Then gently brush the stone with a soft toothbrush, rinse and repeat if needed.
