Okay, very long story short. Inherited this tripod after my father died. I'm getting married tomorrow, very low key, only 3 other people there other than me and my partner, none the less I would really like a picture of us together. The issue is that i cannot seem to attach the camera to the tripod and I feel like a dummy. Can someone please explaine this to me like i'm 5? 😅 see pictures for tripod and camera. And I know they don't fit but why? What am I missing? I have all his old gear, so if I'm missing a part, then I 99.9% have some where. I just don't know what I'm looking for, and know nothing about photography.

Edit: thank you so much everyone! I think i got this now 😊
