What to write in the wedding card? |
My husband was asked to take pictures at a wedding we are attending on New Years Eve. The groom offered to pay him for his services however, because he is not a photographer and is doing it to help out we want to have the pictures developed as a gift. I am sure we will not be able to do all of them with enlargements, etc. but we want to do a bridal album with all of the pictures and pic a few to enlarge and maybe frame them. How do we make mention of this in the wedding card instead of bringing a gift? Oh, and do you have any other ideas on things we could do with the pictures for them? We want them to be special as it is our gift to them. THanks What a WONDERFUL and thoughtful Gift for the Newlyweds -- for Photography can run from several hundred to several thousand dollars ... What I would do is this: Get a frame the size of the invitation -- and frame it (I am sure that the bride will have extra copies available even after the event) -- and place that nicely framed invitation in a box (surrounded by tissue paper and covered with nice wrapping paper). On top of the package, place the Wedding Card ... and write inside: In remembrance of this happy and joyous occasion ... (_____ and _____) we are presenting to you a gift of memories ... The Photographs that we will take of the Bride, the Groom, the Ceremony and Reception too. AFTER you come back from your honeymoon, we will sit down together and you can then choose 5-10 photographs for Enlargement from those that we have taken. Hope you will enjoy this GIFT on this special day, because it comes from the heart of your friends _____ and _____. Congratulations! Source(s): The other thing that I would do -- is to have the photos put on a CD for the happy couple as well ... that way, they could also then take that CD ROM that you had made and make their OWN enlargements in the future if they so desire .. or make copies of the photos for their newly extended family! (PS -- I love taking Digital Images myself -- and did take them for my Sibling's Wedding and another Sibling's Military Promotion Ceremony ... and one of the things that was interesting .. is a lot of what I did was better and more striking in image quality than the professionals that took other photos in the first place! They definitely appreciated the GIFT of my time and loved the photos!) add a frame to your gift and tell them that their gift is "developing" Make a tiny album with photos of you, them, anyone and ut a note in the last page that says you are getting the real deal after thte wedding. Clarify that you are giving them your services as a gift for their wedding BEFORE you write it in a card. Also, discuss with them what pictures you want enlarged, and what your gift entails. Good wedding present, by the way! Photogs are expensive! to the both of you this is a special way to remember your wedding day please enjoy them with no need to repay love and happiness to you both best wishes don't..that is so tacky... you're attending a wedding & not taking a gift ? really ?... just because he's not a professional photographer doesn't excuse ettiquette... spend 20 bucks... |
