Sacramento Wedding Photographers Prefer Unplugged Weddings

Unplugged weddings are becoming increasingly common, with many couples considering it.

Of course going unplugged doesn’t have to mean no photos at all, but here we think going unplugged for the ceremony is a worthy and should be a serious consideration. Let your guests watch you tie the knot and get married to the love of your life, instead of them watching behind a lens, or phone screen. You should get to choose your wedding photographer

If you have decided you want to go unplugged, be it for the ceremony or the whole day, then the next step is how to let everyone know. The common way to do this is through a notice at the venue for when your guests arrive, a simple sign that makes it clear.

Wooden signs can be put up at the ceremony entrance, there are a vast range to choose from and can be bought o Etsy or Amazon. Adding a little note to your invitation is another good way to make your guests aware.



it’s incredibly rude of guests to spoil what should be one of happiest moments of a couple’s life and, of course, one of the true highlights of their wedding day.

So, the short answer is no, it’s not rude to ask guests to refrain from taking photos during your wedding ceremony, however, there are nice ways to do it and not-so-nice ways to do it.

Remember, most every person at your wedding will be someone whom you or your partner know well and love – and they’ll be terribly excited to see you walking down the aisle and, most likely, will also want the odd digital memento of the event. However, they should only gather those mementos in a manner that is respectful to the couple – and the professionals they have paid to record and conduct their all-important nuptials.

More often than not, in their sheer excitement of a wedding, they don’t even realise what they’re doing and, certainly, don’t intend to get in the way or spoil things. So, if you explain to them your logic; that you just want to enjoy your big moment – and capture it perfectly, your guests will understand.

You can also explain that you’ve invited them, as members of your nearest and dearest, to bear witness – and truly experience – your special event, too, – and that you want them to do that through more than just the lens of their camera or mobile phone.
