Your wedding day is one of the most beautiful and significant days of your life. It’s also a whirlwind of excitement, emotions, and a bit of chaos. Staying organized can sound like a daunting task, but it can certainly make all the difference in creating a smooth and enjoyable experience. Whether you’re planning a wedding in Lake Tahoe or any other destination, these tips apply everywhere.
Picture this: the morning of your wedding, excitement is in the air, but so is a little chaos. Your photographer or videographer arrives to capture those perfect detail shots, only to discover that the rings are in one room, the invitations in another, and no one knows where the shoes are. This scenario is more common than you might think, and it can easily cause unnecessary stress and delay. But there’s a simple solution—a his and hers details box.
Why This Matters
When we arrive, the first thing we’ll likely do is capture your carefully chosen wedding details. These items set the tone for your day and create a beautiful narrative in your album or video. By gathering everything ahead of time into one box, you eliminate the need for last-minute searches and allow your us to focus on creativity instead of logistics.









Bride's detail box
- Invitations and stationery: Include one full set with envelopes, RSVP cards, and any other pieces.
- Rings: Engagement ring and both wedding bands.
- Jewelry: Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, or any other special pieces you’ll wear.
- Perfume: Your signature scent for the day.
- Shoes: Your wedding shoes, whether they’re classic heels or chic flats.
- Veil and hair accessories: These can add stunning layers to your detail shots.
- Family heirlooms: If you’re incorporating sentimental items, like a grandmother’s brooch or a special handkerchief, include those as well.
- Anything sentimental: This could be a handwritten note, a keepsake, or anything that holds special meaning for you.
 
 



Groom's detail box
- Watch: A timeless accessory that often holds sentimental value.
- Cufflinks: Whether they’re classic or personalized, these add a touch of sophistication.
- Shoes: Polished and ready to shine in photos.
- Tie or bowtie: Include any tie bars or accessories as well.
- Any personal items: These could be a pocket square, a special gift, or anything else meaningful.




How to Prepare Your Details Box
- Start Early: A week or two before your wedding, begin gathering the items you want photographed.
- Use a Dedicated Box: Keep everything in one designated container to avoid misplacing anything. Any shoe box will be perfect for this task.
- Communicate with Your Partner: Encourage your partner to organize their items, too. Sharing this responsibility ensures everything is ready to go.
- Inform Us: Let us know where the box will be, so we can start working as soon as we arrive.
- Label Items if Necessary: If you have multiple similar pieces or heirlooms, labels can help us know what’s most important.
Additional Benefits of Staying Organized on your wedding day
- Save Time: We won’t need to hunt for items, leaving more time for creative shots.
- Reduce Stress: You can relax knowing everything is accounted for and ready to go.
- Enhance Your Story: These details create a cohesive narrative that ties your wedding album or video together beautifully.


A Note on Timing
On the morning of your wedding, aim to have all details ready at least 30 minutes before we arrive. This ensures we can start working immediately and helps keep the day running smoothly.
