Taking photos of your twins in your wedding gown is something they will eventually like to do each year of their life. If your twins girls are infants, than this is the perfect time to begin this tradition. I use a 3x5 scrapbook and beginning in 2006, I started taking photos of my baby twin girls in my wedding gown. It will be something they will cherish.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Things You’ll Need:

  • Twin A
  • Twin B
  • Wedding Gown
  • Tiara or Veil
  • Twins
  • Patience

Step1
Take your wedding gown out of storage, garage or home. Remove from storage container or plastic bag.
Step2
One twin wearing mommy's wedding gown and tiara. Sit one twin on the living room couch, place wedding gown over her head and put her arms through wedding gown. Place tiara or veil on or over her head. Finally, begin taking photos like crazy and have fun.
Step3
The other twin also wears mommy's wedding gown and tiara. Sit the other twin on living room couch, place wedding gown over her head and put her arms through wedding gown. Place tiara or veil on or over her head. Finally, begin taking photos like crazy and have fun.
Step4
Once photos are taken, upload to computer, find the ones you want to keep and print out a photo of each twin for their scrapbook. Place photo in their scrapbook and add embellishments if you like.
Step5
If you have a digital imaging software and you know how to cut and paste a photo into another photo, take a background photo of your couch, then paste both twins into that background photo so you have them together in your wedding gown. It is pretty cool to do.
Step6
Finally, I did purchase a birthday book (Scrapbook) size 3 x 5 from this one company I know about. If you are interested, send me a message and I will let you know about this beautiful birthday book created for this particular project.
Step7
Here is the completed project for my twins' second year. Here is what my final project for my twins second birthday looks like. I made the veil embellishment myself and purchased the two hearts at my local craft store. I also made the second birthday embellishment myself on my word processing software at home. Sometimes, it is easier to make your own embellishments at home.

Tips & Warnings

  • Take your time with this project.
  • Make is special for your twins for when they get older.
  • Just have fun.
