    Sample fun engagement scripts

    Playful Concept Idea

    "A 'Where We've Been, Where We're Going' slideshow, featuring a world map with pins on cities you've visited, transitioning into photos from those trips, and ending with a picture of your proposed wedding venue in Positano."

    Suggested Song for a Lively Mood

    "'Happy Together' by The Turtles or 'Walking on Sunshine' by Katrina & The Waves – upbeat, classic tracks that evoke pure joy and perfectly complement fun, candid photos."

    Creative Photo Inclusion

    "Create a 'Then and Now' segment: pair a baby photo of each of you, then a childhood photo, a photo from when you met, and finally, a recent engagement photo, showing your journey to each other."

    Most fun engagement slideshows run about 8 minutes at about 6 seconds per photo.
