How to choose the right wedding album

Size, cover, number of spreads and whether a video box is worth it.

Wedding album with presentation box

A wedding album is the one part of your day you’ll still be holding in your hands twenty years from now. It’s worth taking a little time to choose the right one.

Size and binding

30 × 30 cm is the standard for a reason: large enough for panoramic spreads, yet small enough to fit on a bookshelf. Lay-flat binding lets an image flow across two pages without the centre crease getting in the way.

How many photos?

Allow for 60 to 90 photos across 20 spreads. Fewer images per page will always create a cleaner, more balanced layout than trying to include everything.

Album & Video Box

Couples who have also had a wedding film made often choose the box with a built-in screen. It brings the album and film together in one keepsake — a particularly lovely lasting gift for parents.
