But people still like to keep things that help them to remember it and certain aspects of it, and that’s totally understandable. But which mementos should you keep hold of or create to ensure you can always enjoy looking back at your wedding day with fondness and appreciation? That’s what we’re going to delve into today, so read on to find out more.

A Keepsake Box

Creating some sort of keepsake box that collects various items from your wedding day is definitely a good idea and something that more and more couples are choosing to do. It can bring together all of those little items, such as menus, invites and anything else that will remind you of the little details that once made your wedding day so special to you both.

The Speeches

The speeches made by family and friends on your wedding day are often the most emotional moments. These are the times when family and the people you love most have the time to really speak their minds and express how happy they are for you and the person you’re marrying. So keeping a printed version of the speeches or even a recording can be a good idea.

Photos and Videos

Of course, wedding photos always have and always will be very important when it comes to reminding you of your wedding day. Be sure to hire a photographer you can trust to capture those special moments. You might also want to hire a videographer because those moments are all the more real when you can watch them back in real time in years still to come.
