Give your guests the simple pleasure of immediate gratification. Many photographers have the capability of displaying images from the wedding day shortly after they are taken. An iMac or any large computer screen displayed on a side table with a few flowers is a perfect platform for a rolling slideshow of pictures from the ceremony, the morning preparations, the bridal party and the outdoor photos.

A spur-of-the-moment slideshow is a great conversation piece for the cocktail hour or for after dinner. Guests feel included in the parts of the ceremony they may have missed, such as the early morning preparations. If any part of your wedding involves guests killing time between events, a casual screen set off to the side is an excellent addition.

Ask your photographer if they offer this service or one like it. It’s a great advertising tool for the photographer as well; alongside the screen they can set out a few business cards. Gabelli Photography in Vernon, New Jersey, is one studio that offers the instantaneous slideshow option.

Entertain your guests with style. After all, you are a modern bride!
