1. As a surprise for your groom, hire a photographer to take classy but sexy boudoir photographs of you in a 1940s-inspired outfit.
2. The Day After: Travel to a fun location the day after your wedding, in your wedding dress and your groom in his tux, so you have more time and freedom to pose and get great shots. For example—the beach; a mountaintop; the local diner; the subway. Or return to the place where you met.
3. Underwater shots: If you have access to a pool, shots underwater would make wonderfully creative day-after-wedding shots! And so much fun!

4. Shots from far above the dance floor are fabulous. Shots from the dance floor (i.e. lying on the ground looking up at all the dancers) are even more fabulous.
5. Hire a photographer to take photographs of you on your honeymoon.
6. Use a beautiful moment of video to make flipbooks for your close family and friends. Flipclips.com makes them relatively inexpensively!
7. Make use of shadows if it’s a sunny day, and reflections in puddles if it’s raining.
8. Recreate a photographic or videographic moment from your parents’ or grandparents’ wedding, such as getting the same kind of getaway car and kissing in the back window as you drive away.
9. Release dozens of balloons as you exit the church—the photography and videography of that moment will be amazing.
10. Collect video clips of various family members’ weddings, and project them silently onto a wall during your cocktail hour or reception.
