Your wedding day is filled with big, beautiful moments—but the small details are just as meaningful. That’s why detail shots are a favorite among photographers and couples alike. These styled photos showcase the personal touches that make your day uniquely yours—from the sparkle of your jewelry to the texture of your invitations.
To make sure your photographer has everything they need, we’ve put together a go-to checklist, straight from our friends at Ace Photography. These pros know exactly how to capture the magic of your day—down to the very last detail.
Paper Goods
Bring one full suite of your wedding stationery—this includes your invitation, RSVP card, envelope, and any special inserts or programs. These paper elements tell the story of your day and look stunning styled with florals or your ring box.
Vows
If you’ve written your vows in a keepsake vow book, be sure to pack it. It’s not only sentimental—it also looks beautiful in your photos.
Shoes
Whether they’re sparkly heels or comfy flats, your wedding shoes deserve their moment in the spotlight. Bonus points if they have a personal touch or fun detail on the sole!
Jewelry
Gather your earrings, bracelet, necklace, or any other special pieces you plan to wear. These add extra sparkle to your flat lays and are part of what makes your bridal look complete.
Rings
All three rings—the engagement ring and both wedding bands—should be with you in the morning. Your photographer will capture them beautifully, often styled with flowers or fabric for that soft, romantic touch.
Decorative Hanger
Your wedding dress deserves a special hanger! Swap out the plastic for something a bit more elegant—wooden, acrylic, or even custom-made with your name or wedding date.
Family Heirlooms
If there’s a sentimental item—like your grandmother’s brooch, a locket, or a handkerchief—include it. These heirlooms add a deep layer of meaning to your details and create a connection between generations.
