Sep. 29th, 2006 08:20 pmsorry for text only, but i'm in a pickle.
i'm making a last minute (and late!) wedding gift for someone, and since i've never been married, i need some of you crafty married womens' opinions!
i'm making an 8 page 6x6 album. shortly into this, i realized most photos were 4x6, which leaves very little room for embellishing the pages. also, i don't know how many candids they're going to have, and i doubt they'll want to cut up the original photos.
therefore. for your wedding, would you have preferred a small, really fun and decorated scrapbook where you just had to throw photos in...or would you have liked the same scrapbook with a couple pages set up for photos, but the rest of the pages tailored to commemorating your first year of marriage? i thought it might be fun if there were journaling spots contained on pages i'll make for where they liked to go eat, the average prices of things, what some of their favorite music was, etc. i thought this might be cool, since they already have a "real" wedding album, and also the bride got pregnant about two months after the wedding, so this is the only time they're going to have without a kid to really think about *them.*
thoughts?
