Ultimate Checklist for Magazine-Worthy Wedding Flat Lays!

When planning your wedding, the details matter. From the flowers to the table settings, every element contributes to the overall magic of your big day. One often overlooked aspect is the wedding flat lay—a curated collection of your wedding's most beautiful and significant details, artfully arranged and photographed. Perfect flat lays can make your wedding album look like it belongs in a high-end bridal magazine. Here's your ultimate checklist to ensure your flat lays are picture-perfect, brought to you by Move Mountains Co.

Move Mountains Co. photographers and videographers bring flat lay mats (typically cream for brides and black for grooms) and an accessories kit, complete with ring boxes, jewelry dishes, ribbons, and other decorative elements, to help create stunning flat lays.

 
 

1. The Invitations & Stationery

Start with the basics: your wedding invitations, save-the-dates, RSVP cards, and any other stationery. These items set the tone for your wedding and often feature your color scheme and themes. Including them in your flat lay creates a cohesive narrative.

2. Rings & Jewelry

Highlight the sparkle! Include both engagement rings and wedding bands, along with any other special jewelry pieces you'll be wearing. Position them thoughtfully to catch the light and add a touch of glamour to your flat lay.

 
 

3. Flowers & Greenery

Incorporate elements of your wedding bouquet and other floral arrangements. Small blooms, petals, and greenery can add color and texture, making your flat lay vibrant and organic. Work with your florist to set aside a few extra blooms or greenery pieces specifically for this purpose. These elements can be layered around stationery, rings, and other details to create a cohesive and magazine-worthy composition. Including florals ensures your flat lay mirrors the romantic atmosphere of your day, adding an organic and vibrant charm that photographs beautifully

4. Personal Touches

Add items that are uniquely you. This could be a locket with a photo, a special brooch, or a handkerchief with sentimental value. Personal touches make your flat lay more intimate and meaningful.

 
 

5. Vows & Letters

Include handwritten vows, love letters, or notes exchanged between you and your partner. These heartfelt words add an emotional layer to your flat lay, capturing the essence of your relationship.

6. Wedding Accessories

Don't forget the accessories! Shoes, cufflinks, hairpins, and bow ties can all be beautifully arranged to enhance the visual interest of your flat lay. These items help tell the story of your wedding day attire.

 
 

7. Perfume & Cologne

A bottle of your wedding day fragrance adds a sensory element to your flat lay. Not only does it look elegant, but it also reminds you of the scent that will forever be tied to your special day.

8. Fabric Swatches & Ribbons

Enhance the texture of your flat lay with fabric swatches or ribbons that match your wedding colors. They can be used as backdrops or to tie together different elements of the flat lay, creating a harmonious look.

 
 

9. Keepsakes & Mementos

Incorporate small items that hold significance, like a piece of lace from your mother's wedding dress, a family heirloom, or a souvenir from a special trip. These keepsakes add depth and a personal story to your flat lay.

10. Calligraphy & Wax Seals

Elevate the elegance of your flat lay with calligraphy place cards or envelopes, and don't forget the wax seals. These details add a touch of sophistication and timeless charm to your photos.

 
 

By following this ultimate checklist, you'll create wedding flat lays that are not only beautiful but also tell the story of your love and celebration in a way that's worthy of a magazine spread. Happy planning!

Capturing a Lifetime: John + Daria's Journey with Move Mountains Co.

At Move Mountains Co., we have the privilege of capturing life’s most cherished moments, creating lasting memories that tell a unique and personal story. One such journey has been with John and Daria, a couple whose love and life we have documented through their engagement, wedding, and most recently, their newborn portrait session. The experience of being part of their significant life moments has been incredibly special and highlights the importance of having the same photographer throughout these milestones.

Where it all started

Our journey with John and Daria began with their engagement photos in the fall of 2021 in New York City. The excitement and anticipation of their future together were palpable, and we were honored to capture those emotions. The engagement session allowed us to get to know them as a couple, understanding their style, personalities, and the unique bond they share.

From Engagement to Wedding

Their wedding day, in the summer of 2022 at Cruiseport Gloucester, was a beautiful continuation of this story. Having already built a rapport with John and Daria during the engagement shoot, we knew exactly how to capture their special day in a way that felt authentic and meaningful to them. The trust and comfort they had in us allowed for genuine, candid moments, resulting in photos that truly reflected their love and joy.

Welcoming a New Life

Recently, we had the incredible honor of photographing John and Daria's newborn portrait session. Seeing them transition from newlyweds to parents has been a heartwarming experience. Their newborn session was filled with tender moments and the profound love they have for their new baby. Capturing the same couple in different stages of their life adds a layer of continuity and intimacy to the photos, creating a visual narrative that spans years.

The Importance of Consistency

Having the same photographer document these key moments in life offers numerous benefits. Firstly, there’s a level of comfort and familiarity that can’t be replicated. John and Daria were already at ease with us, which allowed for more natural and relaxed photos. They didn’t have to start from scratch with a new photographer, explaining their preferences and getting accustomed to a different style.

Additionally, the consistency in photography style ensures a cohesive look across all the important milestones. The photos from their engagement, wedding, and newborn session all harmonize, creating a beautiful and unified collection that tells their unique story. This consistency is something that future generations will cherish as they look back on the family’s history.

A Special Bond

Being part of John and Daria’s journey has been a testament to the special bond that forms when a photographer is there to capture life’s most important moments. It’s a relationship built on trust, familiarity, and mutual respect. For us at Move Mountains Co., it’s more than just taking pictures—it’s about creating a visual legacy that families can treasure forever.

Post-wedding portrait sessions allow couples to focus on creating relaxed, heartfelt images without the time constraints of the wedding day. It provides the freedom to explore different settings and styles, resulting in a collection of portraits that truly capture the essence of the couple's love story.

At Move Mountains Co., we are dedicated to capturing the essence of your love through every stage of your journey.
