Photo zone chalk board for a wedding in [2022]?

Preparations for a wedding usually take several months, but when the special event is left behind, the memory of it is preserved not only in the hearts of the newlyweds and all the guests, but also in photographs. That is why one of the important stages of preparation for a wedding celebration is the choice of a photographer, as well as the design of a photo zone. Today we will talk about one of the most interesting and popular options - the chalk photo zone.

You can install a photo zone both indoors and outdoors. Sometimes several photo zones are used at once at one wedding. The tradition of decorating a photo zone came to us from the West. During the Soviet era, nothing like this was practiced - they only did a traditional photo shoot in the registry office, after the registry office and during the wedding feast. Nowadays, a special photo zone is often set up.

Basic principles

Please pay attention to the following nuances.

It is better not to make a photo zone in small rooms. If the size of the hall allows, the optimal size is two by two meters.
There should be no unnecessary objects near the photo zone - only props for filming.
The design of the photo zone should be combined with the theme of the wedding.

Interesting! There are many other options for designing a photo zone. One of the bright ones is in the Marsala style.

Standard decor option

The names of the newlyweds are usually written at the top, and any words and phrases related to the wedding are written on the sides. Usually they put the wedding date, the words “Husband” and “Wife”, and the rest of the text is added to the best of desire and imagination - it can be anything, including sayings and catchphrases about love and marriage. The central part usually remains free - the newlyweds, as well as their guests, pose there. The “Chalk Board” photo zone is most often installed not indoors, but outside. It is especially impressive against the backdrop of nature.

This is the most popular way to design a chalk photo zone, but there are other options. Let's look at them.

A small board mounted on a stand, usually completely filled with text. Sometimes this text is written in advance, sometimes guests write their congratulations in chalk during the wedding.
A large board consisting of several parts. The central (main part) remains mostly free - there the heroes of the holiday will pose for the photographer, and text is written on the narrower sides. Often one side of the text (for example, on the left) is dedicated to the husband, the other to the wife;
Screen with chalk coloring. In this case, the photo zone imitates a board and becomes more compact.

Non-standard design

If you give free rein to your imagination, you can design a photo zone in a very unusual way.

Unusual shape. The board can be not only rectangular or square, but also pentagonal, hexagonal, with uneven wavy edges.
The font color may be unusual (instead of the traditional white - all the colors of the rainbow).
Backlight. Small lamps can be mounted along the edges.
Unusual drawings. You can draw anything on the board - and not just traditional wedding symbols like rings, hearts and doves.
Unusual decorations. For example, you can glue large artificial flowers around the perimeter.

Additional props

In addition to the sign board itself, you can use additional props.

Flowers. Sometimes the top of the board is decorated with a flower arrangement. Also, large baskets or floor vases with flowers can stand next to the board or on columns.
Columns. A good idea is to install two or four small columns (about 1 meter high) next to the board. This will give the event a certain status.
Candles. Another original option is to place large burning candles around. They will give the photo shoot an aura of romance. But it is important to remember to be careful not to accidentally touch the candle.
Photos. You can attach photos of the newlyweds to the board.
Boxes with gifts. If you place large gift boxes nearby, the photo zone will look more full.
Signs with inscriptions. You can make small signs from the same slate and write funny messages on them, for example, “She said YES!” (for the groom), “He said YES!” (for the bride), “I came here to eat cake,” “I’m still single,” etc. (for guests).
Props for humorous photos - for example, mustaches that guests can glue on (or attach - if it is a mustache on sticks), heart-shaped glasses, as well as wigs, hats, crowns, etc.

If you do not plan to completely cover the board with wishes from guests, you will need the services of a professional designer or artist. Of course, it would be too difficult to make such beautiful and even notes with ordinary chalk. To do this, use either chalk paint or special stickers for such boards.

Successful ideas for decorating photo zones for Valentine's Day

To beautifully decorate a room, it is not at all necessary to have the talent of a designer or decorative artist. A clear example of this is the wall with the composition “Fluttering Butterflies”, laid out from hundreds of red paper beauties with heart-shaped wings. In this case, part of the decor can be made in such a way as to create the impression that the butterflies are about to fly away. This will add lightness and volume to the composition.

As for its execution, you should use double-sided tape to attach the butterflies. In this case, dismantling will take a minimum of time, without leaving the slightest trace.

As an option, you can decorate the room with bright letters that form a whole congratulation. Such letters can be hung on a rope using decorative clothespins or even sewn yourself using basic patterns and padding polyester for stuffing.

Photo zones look even more impressive when created using black and white photographs of the sights of the most beautiful and romantic cities in the world.

An Eiffel Tower printed in large format, decorated along the outline with many red paper hearts, a tastefully decorated coffee table with rose petals, candles, sparkling wine, croissants, cheeses and fruits - in such an environment, photographs turn out simply fabulous.

It seems as if the heroes really had a chance to visit Paris.

Of course, there are many more interesting ideas for organizing amateur photography dedicated to Valentine’s Day. Decorating the wall with photographs from the family archive, massive floral installations, simulating a culinary master class for two in the kitchen. And all this can easily be done with your own hands, thus creating a branch of a photo studio right at home.

Inscriptions

The names of the newlyweds, as well as the wedding date, are always written on the board. These are, perhaps, the only mandatory points - otherwise everything depends on the wishes and imagination of the newlyweds. Conventionally, the boards can be divided into traditional and unusual - the content of the inscriptions and drawings largely depends on which option the young people choose.

If you want a classic board for a chalk photo zone, then on top you need to write the names of the bride and groom in a semicircle, decorating this inscription with beautiful curls. The words “Husband”, “Wife”, “Wedding”, “Love”, “Happy Together”, “Best Couple”, etc. are most often written on the sides.

In the classic version, all inscriptions are made in white. To prevent the board from looking too simple, they are placed in frames and other options for decorating the text are used - but in moderation. It is expected that a significant portion of the board will remain intact, with inscriptions and drawings located on the top and sides.

If you opted for an unusual board, then you can write whatever you want on it, in any font. Most often, large bright flowers are used to decorate such boards. Often, text and drawings occupy most of the area (and sometimes cover it completely). In fact, you can write and draw absolutely anything on the board.

What kind of wedding is it suitable for?

A chalk photo zone is suitable for almost any wedding, including a themed celebration. Depending on how exactly you design your board, it may well be combined with any style.

In the classic version, a black board with white inscriptions harmonizes perfectly with the white wedding dress and groom's suit.
If your wedding involves the presence of bright colors (for example, a wedding in the style of “Disco” or “Hipsters”), give preference not to classic, but to original design options. For a fruity or floral themed wedding, decorate the board with a picture of the desired flowers or fruits.
If you are having a wedding in a “Rustic” or “Shabby Chic” style, add accessories - small stacks of hay, wooden stands with bouquets of wildflowers or spikelets.

Focus on what colors and elements suit your wedding and use different board designs.

Interesting! Consider other interesting decor options. For example, in Provence or rustic styles.

Choosing a suitable place

Meanwhile, today it is not at all necessary to spend money on expensive photo shoots. You can do them yourself. Fortunately, there are enough editors. And modern smartphones with their super-advanced optics cope with the task no worse than professional equipment.

What about the decor? After all, you shouldn’t buy expensive interior decorations for the sake of a few beautiful photos with your lover?

In fact, it is quite possible to avoid the cost of decorations by organizing a photo zone right at home. The main thing is to choose a suitable place.

Both the sofa in the living room and the bed in the bedroom are suitable for this. Above them you just need to hang joint photos with your loved one or decorations in the theme of Valentine’s Day.

It’s great if the apartment has a fashionable brick wall in the loft style. Against such a background, hand-made decor will look even more impressive.

Even a home bathroom can be a great place for a photo shoot dedicated to Valentine's Day. You can take a photo shoot with your loved one in a beautiful bathroom filled with rose petals or, even more impressively, dried flowers. At the same time, it is not at all necessary to arrange an erotic photo shoot in nude style. Photos in the bathroom with the characters in clothes look no less beautiful.

Basic Tips

Let's highlight the main points.

To design, hire an artist who already has experience in this type of work. You can also find a company whose representatives will bring you a finished board with inscriptions and drawings printed on it.
Carefully choose fonts, designs, lettering and layout, as well as any necessary props.
Focus on your taste, as well as the theme of the wedding party.

Summary

If you are interested in not an ordinary, but an original photo zone for a wedding, a chalk board is an excellent choice. Photos against its background turn out to be very stylish and at the same time colorful - they will help you preserve the memories of the celebration for many years and will certainly please all your guests.

Wedding Chalk Board: 6 Uses

A chalk board can be used for a variety of purposes at a wedding. On the wedding portal svadebka.ws we will tell you how to use it in the decor of your holiday.

Photo zone and backwall for the ceremony

If you don't know how to design a photo area at a wedding so that it looks creative and original, why not use a slate board for this? You can depict anything on the board, for example, doves, hearts, flowers or important dates. You can also invite guests to personally participate in the creation of the painting, and then take a joint photo.

In the same way, you can issue an original backwall for on-site registration. It will be a great alternative to a boring arch! Or you can even combine these two elements: first use the board for outdoor painting, and then arrange an original photo shoot with guests against its background.

Wish board

It has long been out of fashion to write congratulations to newlyweds in a book of wishes. If you want to appear stylish as a couple, order a large slate wish board for your wedding in a beautiful wooden frame, on which each guest can write a couple of lines for you.

This board will not only be useful for a wedding, but will also be an excellent decoration for your home: hang it in the kitchen or hallway to be charged with good emotions every morning before work.

You can look for master classes on how to make a chalk board with your own hands, since such decorative elements can be made independently.

Guest seating

A chalk board can also be used for seating arrangements for wedding guests. Small slates can be used as table numbers and banquet cards by simply writing the desired information on them. Also, at the entrance to the banquet hall, you can place a board on an easel, where the table numbers and surnames of the guests will be indicated, so that your friends and family can quickly find their place in the hall.

Signs and welcome signs

If your wedding is taking place in a country house or estate, you can prepare a sign with the inscription “Wedding” or a welcome sign for your dear guests so that they can quickly find their way to the place of celebration and feel the approaching celebration in advance.

Invitations

The imitation chalk surface can be used as a creative option for a wedding invitation. Guests will not only find out the date of your wedding and its location, but will also receive aesthetic pleasure from an unusual accessory.

Board with the love story of the newlyweds

A wedding board can also be used to tell your guests your love story. You can write the most important dates and events on it: from dating to marriage proposal. The board is installed on an easel or hung on the wall in the hall so that every guest can learn your love story.
