Slideshows for wedding receptions are becoming very popular. It is most definitely the “In” thing to do, and before long wedding slideshows will become so common that the thought of not having a slideshow at the wedding reception will be equal to the thought of not having a photographer at the wedding reception! However, some brides and grooms are a little reluctant at the prospect of showing a slideshow at their wedding reception. Here are some of the top 5 reasons that we have been exposed to, and our solutions to them.

1. We don’t want to bore our guests. – This is a very legitimate concern. Afterall, how many of us really want to sit down and watch picture after picture of the same two people and their friends – whom you may not even know – over and over and over again? You can see the audience yawning without even being there. It can make you tired just thinking about such a slideshow. However, this is not the case with Sands of Time Multimedia Creations creative slideshows. With all the creative elements added into the slideshow, the audience sits amazed in the midst of laughter and tears while enjoying being entertained and having no idea how much time has actually passed by. In addition to the creative elements included in the creative slideshows, each client is counseled in how to create a slideshow that will involve the audience, not bore them.

2. We feel like we’re showing off or being prideful by displaying picture after picture of just us. - Another legitimate concern, but totally obsolete. This is your day – it is about you! Enjoy your day that’s all about you and your new love - celebrate! This is a once in a lifetime event! And our slideshow consultanst can help you create a slideshow that is entertaining and extremely enjoyable to all your guests. Check out our samples for credits.

3. It’s too time consuming. - Yes, gathering up photographs, and videos does take time. So ask mom and dad, brother and sister, grandmom and grandpop, aunt and uncle, and very close friends to help. Think of the wonderful memories you’ll be creating as you sit down together to go through old photos and watch videos that haven’t been viewed since they were taped. Make some fresh cookies and hot cocoa, or some other delicious snack to serve as you spend the afternoon together reminiscing. This will be time well spent as you share these tender and intimate moments with those you love the most.

4. It’s too expensive. - How can you put a price on memories? Photos will yellow, crack, and fade. And even VHS tapes lose their quality over time. However, once you place your favorite photos and video clips on DVD’s or CD’s, they will last forever. Never cracking, yellowing, fading or degrading. (Sands of Time Multimedia Creations can help restore some old photos). Another big bonus is that they make wonderful gifts for you to give to family and close friends after the wedding reception ceremony. Think of the joy on your mother’s, father’s, and grandparents face when you hand them, their own copy of the DVD video slideshow!

5. I just don’t know where to begin. - We realize that the slideshow project can seem overwhelming amongst all the other wedding planning that must be done, so we created the "12 Steps to a Successful Slideshow Production" checklist for you to follow. No need to stress out on what to do next, just follow the steps. You can also call or email your professional slideshow consultant at Sands of Time Multimedia Creations and she or he will be glad to help you with any questions or concerns you may have.
