Make Your Own Wedding Memory Book
28 Jan 2010
As the years go by after your wedding day many of the vital happy memories can fade and creating a wedding memory book is the ultimate way to chronicle the entire wedding process to preserve those special memories. Marriage memory books can be bought readymade with individual pages for guest lists, a family history and tons of pages for photos, but you may make your own. Let’s have a look at what you need to consider when making your own wedding book.
Many couples start to think about their wedding book as they start preparations for the wedding, and just include it in the list to do ; order a wedding cake, book a Sydney wedding videographer, book hotels etc, but a brilliant idea is to make one that includes everything before the wedding also. You want to consider if you want a collection of only wedding day memories or if you would like to include the bachelor and bachelorette party that is sure to have some of the best moments to include, though maybe a section at the back of the book should be reserved for those photographs.
Your marriage book can contain many, chapters if you like, that might chronicle every special moment and memory from the time that you first became engaged. The most important thing you need to keep in mind is that once the last chapter has been written it can be changed in the future, so keep as much memorabilia as you can just in case you make a decision to edit your book in future years. When you’re selecting photographs make sure that you keep at least 2 copies of each as this will allow you to be more creative and if you would like to modify the layout and cut some fancy shapes you’ll always have spare photos.
Let everybody, acquaintances and family, know that you are going to be making a marriage memory book and you’ll be shocked at how many people are ready to contribute to it. Folk will watch out for certain items at the bridal shower, wedding reception and other parties that always make up the entire marriage process, to give to you for inclusion in your wedding book. Occasionally something as simple as the ribbons on the marriage bands can drop to the floor unnoticed, but if folk are aware that you are making a collection of all of your memories they’ll pick it up and give it to you later on at the reception.
Depending on when you make a decision to start a documentation of your wedding will decide on the theme and design of your book. If you plan actually early then you can co-ordinate the book to fit into your marriage theme. Most wedding memory books only cover from the marriage day to the honeymoon, but how great would it be to get some video footage included on your wedding video of you and your better half blushing as you both go through the pages of the bachelor party. If you ask your wedding videographer, they can even make a separate video story from the days leading up to your wedding, with your wedding book as the central theme and just add it to your wedding video package.
Beginning to add to your marriage book as soon as possible after you have decided to be married will mean that you have a amazing story book that not only you and your better half, but also friends and family can look thru when you’re all together again at birthdays, Christmas or other festivities in years to come.
