Wedding Photography pose ideas?

I am doing some research on some fun, creative, and unique wedding photo poses that I can incorporate into my wedding photography...

About 75% of my photography is very spontaneous, especially ceremony and reception captures. But every couple wants those "posed" formal shots, and I am just looking for more fun ideas. Kind of a poll, so to speak, of fun things you all have thought of or had done.

Do any of you have any ideas? Links to pictures and/or image posts are VERY welcome.

I am just looking for some really original ideas. None of the stand smile click, but maybe some fun (groomsmen holding groom up), romantic (bride and groom looking into each others eyes), silly (bride and bridesmaides laying in the grass looking up at camera), etc. poses.

Thanks in advance for your ideas!!!!

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

Bride looking in a mirror putting on her veil. (side view).

Crossed hand over the marriage certificate (comes in handy when there is some question of when you were married, you can look at the photo innocently, rather than asking someone else).

bridesmaid one knee bent, "Punching" out her flowers at the photographer like a cheerleader. Individually shot, not as a group.

groom lifting the bride from the waist during a dance. Dangerous if groom is not fit.

    i am getting married and i also wanted some fun poses like our wedding will be in Mexico there is a lot you can work from:
    1-groom will be at an arcade game room playing will bride is enjoying his game,
    2-groom is getting his shoes shine will bride is waiting
    3-bride is trying on shoes at a store while groom is waiting
    4- bride and groom go to a supermarket and well shop for food with the car and everything
    5-both are on the grass looking up the picture has to be taken from top to bottom
    all of these with dress and tux and you have to ask permission first many will say yes though
