Photographs [your thoughts]
Creating your album is, yes, a tedious process, but it's also one of the most rewarding parts of wedding planning. You'll have a beautiful album for a lifetime. Your instinct may be to jump right in, tear through your proofs, and immediately want to know what should go into your album. But slow down, follow our plan, and skip some stressed-out feelings -- you'll have a beautiful book that tells a wonderful story, and maybe even shows off your dad's disco technique.
Step 1: Don't Go It Alone
Your first look at the wedding photos can be overwhelming (to say the least), so you'd be wise to wait until your new spouse (or friend, sister, or mother) is present to take your first glance. But be careful whom you choose. If your mother's comments -- however well meaning -- tend to stress you out, ask your maid of honor instead, and involve Mom later in the process. Whatever you do, say our photographers, do not lend anyone your proofs. No one will care for them the way you do, and they may get lost or damaged.
