Photo books that are personal need not be something expensive
, you can go out on your own and create your own design. You may find that it is hard to find a cover picture, choose something that you think is most memorable for the couple and make this the cover for front and back. The photo book will be worth all the smiles if you have the placed memorable pictures both in front and at the backs. It will be nice if you can get the pictures of them during all their travels.
You're lucky if you were with the couple when they get to visit the same places as you do, you can insert mementos inside as well. The trend in gift giving today especially in weddings is giving functional gifts and this one falls in that category. What's good about this kind of gift is that you can create it in the comfort of your own homes.
An alternative will be giving the couple a gift certificate so they can choose their own photo book to keep their wedding photos after the wedding. If you have chosen all the whacky part of the wedding party, you may tell the couple to choose the serious ones and get another photo book.
Weddings happen all throughout the year and as soon as your other friends see your gift you will be asked to create another one for them. You can ask some friends and family to bring pictures of the couple as well to add to the photo book. If you're running out of time to create a photo book, just make sure that you have all the photos you need and buy a ready-made ones.
Customized guest books are better gifts if you cannot think of any household ware or appliance to give. Prepare the pictures with black plain borders or anything that will make it uniform. Consider the number of guests who will attend the party, this will be your reference as to how many pages of photo book you have to buys.
