WedPics
This cool, convenient app takes guest photo taking to a new level. Remember when grooms and brides deposited disposable cameras on tables and asked family and friends to snap a few candids? Thanks to the WedPics App, this is an antiquated notion. Now, guests can use their smartphones to take photos and instantly upload them to a couple's personalized album in the cloud. Not only does this app allow guests to quickly capture photos, it lets couples easily convert digital albums into actual prints. Profiled by the BBC, The New York Times and ABC news, WedPics has also gained attention from professionals who think it offers nice - if limited - benefits.
"Photo apps are good for weddings, because they give guests the chance to take and share lots of candid shots," said Arnaud Brichet, a Punta Cana wedding photographer who owns hdcphoto.com. "With that being said, they should be used as a supplemental part of a greater wedding photography plan. To capture the unique essence of your ceremony, you'll want an experienced, knowledgeable professional who has the knowhow and tools required to take flawless, professional photos.
Projects
Every busy bride and groom needs a way to stay organized. This handy app can help you keep your sanity, as you try to schedule fittings, meetings with vendors and personal DIY projects.
Tie Right
Great for groomsmen, this app clearly shows users how to tie the six most popular necktie knots: the Pratt knot, the half Windsor knot, the small knot, the Windsor knot, the four in hand knot and the bow-tie. Demonstrations are provided from two different views, so users can get a clear vision of each step.
