Wedding Album
Although we worried a great deal, everything about our wedding turned out perfectly. Our wedding announcements were beautiful, and we were
able to get them at a discount rate. Our wedding planning went off flawless. The toasts were lovely, the caterer was great, and best of all the
pictures were fantastic. Both me and my wife are very big on keeping track of the important events in our lives, so a good wedding video and
wedding photographs were crucial. Strangely enough, we never had any problems until we started looking for wedding albums.
You see, we wanted to get a wedding album that was able to capture the beauty and variety of the day. The pictures were great, but they were
kind of diverse. Some of them were very serious and some of them were very silly. Some were very formal and some of them were extremely informal.
As the evening went on and people had more to drink, everything got very chaotic. We wanted to get a wedding album that could both convey the
seriousness and the levity of the situation – no small task.
Unfortunately, none of the wedding picture albums we looked at quite workd. I thought a leather bound photo album might be a good choice, but
they turned out to look very tacky in person. I know that wedding albums should have a certain classic look to them, but there is such a thing as
too much of a good thing. We wanted something that didn't look too serious, particularly when we were using such a modern format inside. We
wanted to put captions with pictures, and we wanted a very informal layout.
Finally, we decided no a wedding scrapbook album. At first, the idea seemed rather unlikely. Making your wedding album by hand, after all, is
a risky proposition. A quirky look is fine up to a point, but you do not want thing to look shabby. I was worried that was what we would get, but
there was no need to worry. When we were done with it, it looked fantastic. We made a patchwork cover, used collages as the background for the
photographs, and did everything by hand. Not only did the wedding album work out, but we also had a great opportunity to work on it together. It
was actually our first serious collaborative project as a married couple, and I am very happy with the way it turned out. Now all we have to do
is to finish our Online wedding album!
