When I saw this, I had one of those moments of “I wish I could redo my wedding and add this adorable idea”. Treat your guests to a challenge of the game “I Spy” and ask them to take photographs of moments your photographer might not be able to get in the hustle and bussle of it all. You could then create a public flicker account so everyone can load their photographs for you to see. Adorable
