Eliza's Wedding Book
The cover of Eliza's book. This book is 8x8. I used BasicGrey rubons down the paper seam and Making Memories letters to create the couple's monogram.
On every wedding book I make, I include the announcement as the front page.
This is my favorite "layout" from the pictures of Danny and Eliza. The reason I put a section of pictures grouped at the front of the book is because I love to use my embellishments and you can't have anything bulky inbetween the signing pages or people can't write. I also love putting quotes with the pictures the couple had taken! It is fun to put meaning to those expensive snapshots!
Again, I did colored pages for the dividers. I included a black bulldog clip embellished with a rubon word so the pages for the other reception could be closed and people didn't sign in the wrong place. (Yes, I learned that from experience!)
Instead of small quote pages in this book, I made full pages. (Danny didn't really like the advice quotes, so I found as many shmoopy ones as I could to match the pictures they sent me.) I cropped and faded the pictures in photoshop, added the quote over the photo and printed the whole thing on vellum. It was a really subtle effect that was a favorite with this couple!
The back cover is so simple- a rubon with a charm that reads "cherish". And of course, more ribbon down the binding!

I LOVE the vellum photo pages with quotes. Genius! I also love the page with the many many flowers.
The book is gorgeous (even more so in person of course) and it makes me sick that I didn't get anything like that when I got married. All the cool stuff comes after I get my turn dangit.
Again, too cute. I love the faded picture that you printed on vellum. What do you use to make everything stick?
SO awesome. So very, very awesome!
I think that I need to get married again. (To the same person, of course.) Would you make a book for me?
