Let's just say this one revolves around the one star attraction at your wedding. It can be an installation or a canopy - but it's the piece de resistance and why not, use it to its fullest potential.

Well, you can have that portrait but you can also pep it up with your parents' wedding picture in frames - so innovative and such a beautiful way to honour memories!

Keep It Royal

Make a pyramid, choose a location that speaks old-school - like a fort or a nice boutique hotel and keep it classy.

Hold That Message

Let your favourite aunts and cute cousins hold up your "Happily Married" message and that's something you'll remember for the rest of your life!

The Sitting Room Look

Take a tip from the newest Ritu Kumar Campaign and appreciate how they used a sitting room with minimal decor as a backdrop for emotional family photos. Bingo!

Nature's Goodness

We absolutely loved how this cute family portrait speaks volumes about the elegance and sass this family has. Pick a spot that's close to nature, let your decorator do it up a lil bit and click away! We love the message on that slate - so effortless!

Inside a Limo

The Big Entrance

The entrance of the wedding venue with all its wondrous decor might just be a great place to start with the nice portrait. Under the arches is always a good idea!
