brandyntravi's Pink wedding

I hope you don't take what I say to be mean and I certainly don't mean to rain on your parade or anything but my friend did this and spent so much money on these cameras and after the wedding half of them were missing...people actually took them home. Then the ones that she did have left had maybe 3 pictures that were actually photos she could use. They ended up being a total waste of money. People played with them mostly and took photos of stupid things like their feet and due to the fact the reception hall was a little dark the rest of the photos didn't even turn out (cause they are cheap disposables afterall).  Just something to think about before you spend that much money on them.

Also, I totally agree with not spending a fortune on a photographer however after your wedding day the only two things you have to show for it is your rings and your photos. Make sure if you are asking someone to take photos that they know what photos you want and what you are expecting. It's one thing to have a great camera but you need to have someone who knows a little about what they are doing too. For example, my dad always cuts off peoples heads when he takes pictures so I wouldn't be asking him to take photos. Make sure your brother in law knows what he is doing or you'll be one disappointed bride after your big day.

Phew....I was worried there for a minute! hehe. I worked in photography too and I just see so many girls do stuff just to save money and then end up disappointed in the end. Thanks for clarifying.

& remember...I know a lil bit 'bout photography & i already told ya, i'm bringin my camera lol :)

My sister had disposable cameras at her wedding at some of the best photos were taken with the,. We told people they could take them home and send her the doubles so she didn't end up having to develop most of them. I developed the rest for her. No one took them home. I think it's a great idea, I'm buy 10 for my wedding!
