Many couples search for ways to save money on their wedding, but few consider having your guests take the photos. Who is better at capturing all the people and moments you want to remember most than your friends and family.
There are a few ways to make this happen
1. Place disposable wedding cameras at each table and ask guests to use them at the reception and return them before leaving.
2. You can provide several digital cameras with memory cards and ask guest to put memory cards in a recepticle before leaving.
3. Ask guests to bring their own cameras  to take lots of pictures and send you the duplicates. You can do this in lew of a gift or simply offer to pay for processing.

Here are some tips for great non professional photos
1. Try to mix shots between candid and posed
2. Look for a good background, perhaps rope off a photo spot
3. Avoid taking photos too close to windows and mirrors which create a reflection
4. Concentrate on up close intimate wedding moments
5. Keep group photos small and close
6. Avoid flash during the ceremony
7. Look for moments the bride and groom might miss, they cannot be everywhere at once.

Following these simple tips and being creative can help you save a lot of money on wedding day photography.
