Step 1
Select the type of album cover you prefer. Common wedding album covers include smooth, embossed or photo inset. Consider purchasing a silver-plated album cover, engraving your names and wedding date on the front. Place ribbons matching your wedding colors or your wedding flowers on the album cover.
-
Step 2
Gather photos and wedding day mementos. Add both professional and guest photographs. Include a copy of your engagement announcement, the scripture reading, your wedding invitation, the words to your first dance song, a copy of the dinner menu, and wedding cards.
-
Step 3
Purchase supplies. Select a wedding album large enough to include your wedding memories. Look for ribbon, wedding stickers, love quotes, and other wedding embellishments. Use your wedding colors to highlight items in your wedding album.
-
Step 4
Practice the layout and design. Before gluing and taping items down, arrange the layout. Move items and pictures until satisfied with the design. Place items in chronological order of events. Start with wedding showers and pre-wedding events. Continue with the rehearsal dinner and the wedding day. Include written memories, photo captions and wedding wishes on each page.

Step 5
Finalize the layout. Use double-sided tape or glue your mementos when satisfied with the layout. Create a simple design for the wedding album's first page. Try something like your favorite picture, names, wedding date, or a special quote written in elegant script. Design a final page in your wedding album to commemorate your wedding day. Include a picture leaving the wedding and a quote to sum up the day.
