Wedding Pictures (and video clips) & I need album help

[wendy46001]

Hi All

I’ve just loved reading all of your posts over the last month;
I wish I found this site sooner

While I’ve posted bits and pieces I’ve never posted the our wedding links
We had a wonderful ceremony at the WP , Italy Isola for Illuminations
And then the AA rotunda for the reception

We used Disney for just about everything (didn’t really know we could use outside vendors)…but they made the whole experience stress free and magical…

Currently we are working on creating our Disney wedding album (my gosh is this the hardest thing to put together) we don’t know where to start…do we stick to group shots....Focus on us??....If any one has any advice its greatly appreciated... and what does the castle cover look like?

Sample pictures (our favorites for Disney)

Well first let me say that ALL of your photos are absolutely breathtaking! I can see that you have your work cut out for you.

How I would start is by selecting the group shots. I wouldn't take too many (maybe one of the girls, boys, and everyone or just everyone) because you have FAR TOO MANY BEAUTIFUL ONES OF THE TWO OF YOU!!!!

I would also definitely take one of the ones that shows of your amazing dress! Either the one from up above showing you on the stairs or the one that shows off your train.

Then I would fill the rest with you and him. I'd start by picking one from the ceremony, one from the beach, one in front of the flowers, one from the fireworks, etc and keep going until I have 20.

You should be SO thrilled with your photos! They are amazing! Best of luck!!!!

you have such beautiful photos & you looked just beautiful! congratulations! i love your bridge photo of you 2 at dusk & then the one at the castle at sunrise where your kissing with the blue on the castle just wow.

as for the album, we picked a nice mix of photos with just the 2 of us & then us with our parents & family, etc. for our album. best of luck with your decision.

All of your pics are just beautiful, I see why you are having trouble deciding!!

BTW, do you mind if I ask what time your ceremony was at the WP?? We are having a late wedding (4pm) and your pics are just what I want (pics at dusk and evening at the WP).

Good luck with choosing!!

Your dress and veil were gorgeous!! You and your dh looked stunning! The little flower girls were adorable. All of the photos are wonderful-I can see why you are overwhelmed.

You all are so sweet....

thanks for the ideas Yanners and Twojo21....my DH is all about filling the album with just us and I want more of the family shots...We had so many people travel from all parts of the world to be with us ...I feel bad leaving them out...

Our wedding was the last space 7:30 at WP....but its May so sunset was around 8:30...Plus i didnt even know it would be a full moon....it cast a great shadow...

Another way to approach putting your album together is to try to use the pictures to tell the story of your day - thats how I put mine together. I pulled all my favorite proofs out and sorted them on the floor of my living room. Slowly I took out the pictures that didn't help tell the story of our wedding. I kept cutting things until I had the number of pages that I wanted. Doing it this way helped me get a good mix of candids and posed and made sure all the important family and bridal party group shots were included.

Good luck putting the album together. It's quite a task!

Wow, they are beautiful.
Your dress is stunning. I have to say you looked a true Cinderella.
Congratulations to you both.

That's a great way to organize everything. I keep telling myself I'll get to our wedding album before our first anniversary but I don't think that will happen! I scrapbook and I do each year chronologically so I have finished 2005 and put a few pages from our wedding, which helped me organize my thoughts for when I do the "real" album, but I'm not ready yet! Even though I've been scrapping for over 6 years, the idea of our wedding album just makes me anxious

Also, wendy46001 check out the scrapbooking area of the DIS boards (under Creative Community) the ladies (and guys) over there are super nice and helpful!
