After the ceremony concludes, the bride and groom make their way to the reception, where they get to celebrate with their family and friends. During the reception, one of the exciting moments is the bouquet and garter toss. When this happens, all single women and men line up to catch the bouquet or garter, in hopes they will be the next to get married (and hopefully book you for their wedding)!

Because both events happen so quickly, it can be difficult to capture the best images every time. So you can document every exciting moment, here are 7 methods to help you nail the bouquet and garter toss images.

1. Discuss the Shot

As in every part of the wedding day, it can be helpful to have an idea of what will happen during the bouquet and garter toss. When you talk to your clients before the wedding day, discuss these shots with them. Perhaps they want someone in particular to catch the bouquet or garter, and that can help you focus on that individual during the shot. You can also ask them to take their time before tossing the bouquet or garter in the air. Because this is a fast moment, inform them you would love to capture their genuine excitement in the photos.
