Most scrapbooking enthusiasts love to scrapbook with wedding photographs. You can really make an elegant layout using the best materials available. Here are some wedding scrapbook page ideas for you to try. Good materials to use when doing a wedding layout are things like lace, thick dry embossed card stock, ribbon, jewelery, flowers and other elegant motifs. Try getting hold of a formally posed wedding photograph to use as your focal point. It can even be in black and white if you want the vintage effect. It was popular way back for the couple to have formal posed pictures, but these days the photographs are posed for in a more relaxed manner, and family and guests are often included in the photographs. Take note of any background elements and colors that you can focus on in your chosen photo. If it is a black and white photo with a pillar in the background, you could try making a pillar to put on your layout somewhere; your journaling could even travel down the pillar. With a color photograph, use embellishments and card stock that tone in nicely. I found a great wedding photograph of my parents. I enlarged it and made it the focal point on my layout. I put my titles down the side and mounted the photograph on some lovely leafy card stock. Some pretty lace and a lacy flower at the bottom of the layout finished it off beautifully. Even though my parents looked so happy in their wedding photo's, they unfortunately like so many couples got divorced twenty years later. However, if you have old wedding photographs where the couple is still together, it might be a good idea to make a lovely wedding layout and then on the next page put some photographs of the couple as they look now. A great scrap booking idea and solution is to try making a flap underneath the focal photograph. Underneath that flap you can put photographs of the couple enjoying moments together over the years or even some journaling. Another good idea is to get a posed family photograph with all the children and grandchildren that the marriage produced and put it under the flap. In this way the layout would tell the reader some of the history behind the marriage. This kind of thing would make a wonderful anniversary present for the couple in question. It would make a wonderful gift that could be cherished for ever.
