New Discoveries! A Special Feature on Wedding Photos Captured with the Unique Perspective of a Dinner Party Style (Long Table)

I Admire Long Tables♡
Known as a banquet style, the long rectangular table allows guests to sit side by side. It's stylish and has a foreign vibe, making it increasingly popular among brides choosing their venue layout lately♡
(Many brides may have considered long tables as one of their conditions while searching for a venue.)
It offers a refreshing change from the standard round tables, and the floral arrangements can be uniquely designed in a vertical layout that is not possible with round tables, which is also appealing♡
For example...
Even a single flower in a small vase looks vibrant and voluminous when arranged like this♡

【Main Topic】 Unique Photos You Can Capture with Long Tables♡
If you layout the banquet hall using long tables, you can take completely different variations of photos on the day that are not possible with round table layouts♡
(1)
Standing at the end of the table, you can snap a picture with the 10 guests sitting on both sides♡
A nice idea for capturing a photo♡
(2)
Even the toast shot can include all the guests like this, which is amazing♡
(3)
Capturing the "reverse" toast shot from the guests’ side is unique to long tables.
It’s great to see both the guests and the bride and groom in a straight line*
(4)
In family or small weddings, the bride and groom may sit at the same long table with their guests.
Their backs and the overall scenery truly give off that banquet vibe and look lovely♡
(5)
During the entrance scene or the intermission scene, being able to walk straight between the guests lined up is one of the charms of long tables.
Getting the photographer to capture this composition makes it feel like you’re surrounded by your guests, which is wonderful♡
(6)
At the end of the table, there’s a movie playing♡
With a round table layout, movie photos often pick up just guests’ faces, but...
With long tables, you can capture everyone and the table floral arrangements beautifully.
It results in a well-composed photo♡
Things I Want to Ask the Photographer*
