This album is often what is left after the cake, the food and dance music are gone.....but the album reflects the day and the celebration. Each wedding is different -- even though a specific set of photos may be requested. You will need to think long and hard about which photos you want taken and if you and your sweetheart want to have your formals taken prior to the wedding, or during, some time between the wedding and reception -- and for how long a time segment.
