A CREATIVE WAY TO SHARE YOUR DAY
You’ve heard the term,” Pics or it didn’t happen” and with good reason. Social media has become the storyteller for most, life on display. If you are wondering what’s going on in your friend group, odds are you can open an app and find out. Statistics are showing that this is not a trend, the influence that social media has is here to stay. It can be said then, that embracing this as a tool can be of benefit even for brides. You spend a large amount on things like photography, invitations, the outfits, and accessories; Why wouldn’t you document the journey?! Let’s talk about why you should use social media for your wedding, and how you can accomplish it in style.

A big part of any event is the advertisement. How do you get the message out to everyone, especially if they live out of the area? A phone call is a great tool, but if there’s a lengthy guest list, that can take a lot of time. Instead, you can reach everyone you need to at the click of a post. Any platform with the ability to post video or photo, is the perfect place to make an announcement and keep guests updated with information. Not only is there convenience in going this route, if you are looking to stay on budget, this is a great way to spend less on invitations and save the dates! If you’re still not sold on this option, consider it an opportunity to do something different. Everyone typically expects the done up, 3-piece invitation, but you can put the same design effort into multiple posts; make a promo reel and just have fun and get creative.
Now that you have opted for a different way to announce your big day, here are some tips on the how. First, you want a theme. Think about the colors you will incorporate throughout your wedding day. Is there a location, setting, hobby, or thing you and your fiancé enjoy? You can also incorporate one of those things and highlight it. For example: Paris could be the place you got engaged or where you draw your inspiration from. Consider including golds, florals, champagne colors; Choose a landmark and feature it. Are you dog lovers? Include photos with your fur baby, make them your ring bearer or apart of your bridal party. To include everyone, feature a dog treat station for guests to take treats home. All these ideas are an opportunity to post. If you really want to create an excitement and capture your guest’s attention, “leak” bridal portraits or engagement photos. Not every detail has to be exposed, but some far away shots or shadow portraits will keep everyone on their toes. The main idea is that social media affords you opportunities to stand out and is very budget friendly.
