THE BEFORE & AFTER GAME (QUICK OVERVIEW)
The photo game that results in picture perfect memories! Prior to your event, source one sign that says 'before' and one that says 'after'. These are your all important props. Now fast forward to event day: as guests arrive, set them up for their initial mug shot (make sure they're holding the 'before' sign). At the end of the night, snap each guest holding the 'after' sign. Once the celebration is done and dusted, print all of your images off, stick them into a scrapbook and gift to the hen. Want to mix things up a little? Why not take actual mug shots featuring funny 'crimes committed' (e.g. 'stealing the groom's heart', 'singing off-key at karaoke'), put together a video montage (of each guest arriving and each guest leaving), or snap some epic group photos (one 'before' the party and one 'after')!

Feature a 'Line Up'
Snap these photos in front of a 'line up' wall for realistic 'mug shot' feels. You may also like to have the bride-to-be's picture printed onto an actual mug - a cheeky yet useful post party gift.
VIDEO MONTAGE
Create a memorable video by filming short clips of each guest as they walk through the door. Dance breaks, twirls and struts all welcome here. At the end of the event, film short clips of each guest as they're about to leave.
Edit the videos together and gift to the bride for a fun and sentimental keepsake!
Editing Options:
When editing, you can do one of two things: place ALL 'before' videos at the start, followed by ALL 'after' videos. OR, place individual 'before' and 'after' videos directly next to each other (so you would see the bride arrive, and then the bride leave, for example).
GROUP PHOTO
Grabbing each and every party-goer individually, before and after the party, can be quite the task! To make things easier, ask for a group photo at the beginning of the party (hen up front and centre, holding the 'Before' sign) and then again after the party (hen holding the 'After' sign this time).
