Your wedding is something that will be remembered for a lifetime. It can feel like you’re planning for war. From making sure Uncle Sal doesn’t sit next to his brother who owes money to budgeting for all you need and want, it can feel almost as though you’re prepping for war. Memories are the most important thing to remember.

You will be making one of the most important decisions in your life: choosing your photographer. This guide will help you to get the most romantic photos possible of your fairytale wedding day. Professional Photographers of AmericaThese are some suggestions from the 29,000-plus member organization,

* Express yourself. Which type of photos do your like? Are they journalistic or more romantic? Be clear with your photographer about your style so that they can capture you.

* Say yes to the dress. It all starts with this iconic piece. What will make it feel like the bride that you have always longed to be? What kind of gown will you choose? A flowing sundress or a formal dress with train and veil. Maybe you’re more modern and envision a strapless gown in a different color. Dare to wear the dress of your dreams, no matter what it may be.

* Buy the shoes?or not. Carrie Bradshaw has a great knowledge of shoes. And so should you. Do you prefer kitten heels or stilettos? Maybe cowboy boots appeal to you more? Can’t decide? Don’t worry if you don’t have the right shoes and walk barefoot.

* Rejoice in style. Your wedding day isn’t just a ceremony, it’s a celebration that brings all your family and friends together (for better or worse), and pictures of this memorable party are a great way to inject your own sense of style. Pictures of your wedding are a must, regardless if it is a backyard BBQ or a tailgate at your favorite baseball stadium.

* Decide on your ride. Some prefer to be transported by horse and carriage, as if Cinderella were their ride. Others prefer luxurious limos and cars to be the modern equivalent. A motorcycle might be more for you if you are looking for the free-spirited spirit of the world. As you leave your wedding, you’ll have a wonderful photo opportunity.
