Item ① Garland ＊

First up is the garland ＊ The garland is a classic item, isn't it? ♡ Holding the ends with your partner and smiling at each other creates a lovely and intimate shot ＊

The words "Just married" are cute, but for traditional pre-shoots, we recommend using phrases like "We got married" or "Thank you" on the garland ♩

Using perspective to focus on the cranes instead of the bride and groom creates a stylish blurred photo.
