Just like the ring, with this you’ll be able to connect to all your favorite apps and stay in the loop with updates and your friends while having the time of your life.
Wedding Drones to Make Cool Photos & Video
Move over boring wedding cameras. Drones have taken the world by storm and have forever changed the act of taking pictures as we know it. Use a wedding drone to take wedding pictures from crazy angles and close-ups.
Use your imagination to create the wedding story of your dreams. You could choose to use the drone from days leading up to the wedding until the day of the actual ceremony. You’d be surprised at what you can achieve with this piece of technology. If you have a professional at your wedding party, even better; assign them to drone duty, to give you the coolest technology photos.
Choose GoPro to Capture Moments
GoPros are the technology of choice for millennials and Generation Z, and no wonder. These gadgets have unimaginably fantastic resolution and they can be used in a number of ways. Wedding planners are catching up to this GoPro wedding trend and using them well to their advantage.
With a GoPro you can capture a wedding in a whole new light and offer the couple cool technology photos and videos that are even more beautiful than reality.
GIF Photobooth
Who said static photos were boring? We did. A GIF photobooth is the ultimate fun for taking wedding photos. You guests will be thrilled to use this, and you will find them lining up to get their gifs. Already popular in 2018, this is one trend that users aren’t going to let go so easily.
With a gif booth, when you take your selection of 3 to 5 photos, it turns them into an animated gif that can be saved and shared on photo apps instantly. It also has the function of the original photo booth, so you still get printouts of the single shots. Isn’t this a nifty idea for a 2019 wedding? Weddings are all about images, and the gif booth just takes things to a whole new level.
Live Streaming Your Big Day
With wedding guest sizes growing smaller and smaller and some couples choosing to elope or have a destination wedding, not everyone can attend. This is why live streaming is a great idea to keep every single friend and relative updated as your wedding progresses.
Social media can help you do they do, while you’re busy getting hooked. Some venues even offer live streaming in their wedding packages and will let you rig it up. There are a number of apps you can use for this aspect of your wedding coverage, and we recommend Periscope if you are unsure which to choose.
3D Printing Possibilities

Capturing Wedding Day with Selfie Sticks

You could also buy them as wedding favors for your guests to use at the ceremony and wedding receptions. With all your guests armed with selfie sticks you are sure to find better quality photos of your wedding.
