Lcd Projector Wedding Favors

Using photos to personalize your wedding can be a great idea. How about making an lcd projector wedding favor using a video photo montage for the rehearsal dinner or wedding reception? By utilizing photos of the bride and groom from various parts of growing up through the years, couples can share their past to their favorite music. This could grow into their first memories together which have built the foundations for their committment to each other. The way it can be done is as a multimedia montage which can be a simple slideshow or professionally put together. The professional ones can incorporate home movies and special effects that work well if done right.

Montages that take us through the years are shown during toasts at a reception or the rehearsal dinner. They can also be played while everyone is enjoying cocktails. All you really need to set this up is a big screen, lcd projector (or plasma TV or any other type of display), a computer, and old photos that have been scanned or recent digital images of course. This can be done using Microsoft Powerpoint and it's relatively easy once you get started. Other tools like Camtasia Studio are more expensive but can give a beginner a high quality output. Try out different methods to see which suits you best.

Which brings me to the next point. While you're doing this don't forget who the audience is. This is important whether or not you do it yourself or hire a pro. If you are showing it as part of the event like before a speech or while someone is giving a toast, you may want to keep it short. The attention span of most people starts to fade after 5 minutes or so. Remember that the photos should incorporate as many friends and family as possible as it makes everyone feel a part of the celebration. It will make it all the more enjoyable when people start to see themselves as part of the show!
