The litttle things make a big difference.......and wonderful souvenirs
So of course you want to make your perfect wedding day as unique and personal as possible, but how? Well I tend to notice a lot of subtle yet powerful finishing touches working as a wedding photographer and it is vital that I pay attention to these details, and the individual handwriting which couples have attached to their special day. Here are a few of my favorite personal touches that have caught my eye recently.
If you have any special ideas that you are going to incorporate in your wedding day then please leave a comment to tell me about them. I love to hear about the little things that really make the big day, and hopefully these examples may give you some ideas of your own to help your wedding planning.

Everything can tell a personal story and I will always remember these milk bottle vases. The bottles being from a dairy connected to the family. THIS is a great example of a personal touch, and the ultimate in quirky!
