Your wedding album will contain the best memories of the day you got married. As such it pays to think carefully about how you will create it.

Luckily there are lots of different ways you can create this all important album. Make sure you consider all the options together before choosing the best way for you both.

To start with you can choose a basic photo album. You can opt for one that takes photos of just one size or you can choose one that has much larger pages. These are better because you can use both small and large photos and insert other items as well if you wish.

In fact, scrapbooking is becoming more and more popular as an alternative to the traditional wedding photograph album. It’s easy to see why too – you can buy a large scrapbook with pages already in it and then buy additional ones to insert at a later date if you want to.

You can also make good use of embellishments and other items to add in with the actual photos. This gives you lots of ways to think about adding footnotes, captions and other items to the pages. How about drying some of the wedding flowers from the bride’s bouquet for example, and adding them in to the overall design of a page?

Regardless of the type of album or scrapbook you choose, you can create different themes for different pages if you have room to add more than one picture to each one. For example you could have a page dedicated to the bridesmaids and one to the best man. And of course you can have separate pages for the bride and the groom, and several for the two of you together.

Thanks to the wonders of modern technology you can also use your digital photos to create an online photo album or book which can then be printed if you wish. This can make a wonderful alternative to a traditional album, because the pages are printed like a proper book and they will usually come in hardback as well. They would make wonderful thank you gifts for the parents of the bride and groom perhaps?

Whatever type of album you choose however, make sure that the overall presentation is cohesive. Don’t start with pictures of the cake and the reception and then go back to the actual wedding. Keep things in a logical order and you will be amazed at what you can achieve from a huge selection of photos that seemed to overwhelm you at the start.

Here is one final suggestion if you decide to add disposable wedding cameras to the tables for your guests to use during the celebrations. Why not create another album devoted specifically to these? This would be your guests’ view of what happened after the wedding itself during the reception, and it can provide a nice footnote to the proceedings.

In any event your wedding album is an essential part of the whole event. And as such it is worth doing right.
