Planning your bridal shower is exciting, but with everything happening so fast, it’s easy to forget to capture those special moments.
The good news? You don’t need a scrapbook (or even a fancy memory book) to preserve your best memories. With a few simple, stress-free methods, you can document this beautiful time in your life in just minutes a day!
I recently photographed Sabrina’s bridal shower at Matteo’s, and it was filled with the most stunning blue details—delicate floral arrangements, elegant table settings, and touches of soft blue in every corner. But the most touching moment of the day? When her dad became emotional as he posed for a photo with his daughter. It was a reminder that these little moments—full of love and meaning—are the ones worth saving.
Your bridal shower is just as special, and you’ll want to remember the love, laughter, and joy. Here are three easy ways to save your memories, no scrapbooking required:
1. Use Your Phone’s Voice Notes
Instead of trying to jot everything down, record quick voice notes during or after your shower. Capture how you felt when you saw the decorations, the laughter shared over games, and the sweet words from your loved ones. Later, you can turn these notes into a journal entry or even include them in a keepsake book.
2. Create a Digital Photo Album
If you hired a professinoal photographer, you’ll get an online gallery of all the best moments of your shower for you to download and treasure. While you wait, start collecting photos from friends and family.
Then, use an app like Google Photos, Apple Photos, or Chatbooks to create a digital (or printed) photo book. If I photogrpahed your shower and you’d love an album of your professional photos, I can create one for you! Just reach out, and we can put together a stunning keepsake that captures all the love and joy from your bridal shower.
3. Ask Guests to Share Their Favorite Moments
Your bridal shower isn’t just special for you—it’s also meaningful for your friends and family. Ask guests to send you their favorite photos, videos, or even a short note about a moment they loved from the day. You’ll get a unique perspective on your shower and might even see moments you missed! These shared memories can be compiled into a digital folder, a printed book, or even a heartfelt video montage.
The key to saving memories is to make it effortless. Whether it’s voice notes, quick photos, or shared moments from loved ones, the important thing is to start. You’ll be so glad you did when you look back on this special time!
