I believe a scrapbook of the wedding is to share the story of the
days/years leading up to the wedding and then share photos of the event
itself.

By the way here is a sample of digital wedding scrapbook that I made by my self:

Yup! I'm there again. 4 days I've been staring at papers and pics and getting nowhere. I've got about 4 different sets of pics of Mia to scrap. I get one, I think I'll scrap it, I print it, I sit and look at it. I get more pics, think I'll scrap them instead, I print them, I sit and look and them......and again. I've got some for my BOM too, and same problem. Now, I'm sure it will fall into place, it always does - especially when I tell you I'm ...

I printed 2 large photo's, and not being able to decide which I liked best, I decided to use both. To do this, I have to turn my page into one with a big flap (didn't want to do a DLO). Anyway, I worked that out, covered bits with my papers and now.............completely stuck. It's just not working. The pics are too large, so not enough space left to embellish or add a proper title or anything....I don't think I like the papers.....I've decided that ...

With a pic I'm guessing. You choose your pic, then your papers and go from there. Unless you're using a sketch and then that's your first port of call. Well, you know I've been struggling lately so I started doing everything back to front to see where that got me. I did start with a plan though. I draw sketches, but never actually use them, but this time...I had a plan. When I'd got my plan all sorted, I chose my papers and found 3 plus ...

It bugs me when I want to buy say some prima flowers, they come in expensive packaging like pretty bottles in every shade imaginable and shapes, to get a good assortment of colour it costs the earth. Although at least they're in colour groups. I say pack 'em in griplocks all assorted, but would they lose their appeal? ...

I Scrapped for 7 years and filled a fair few albums. It always bugged me that I still had photos in boxes and I wanted to see them in an album. Being a slow scrapper I knew I'd always be playing catchup.

Do you think amongst my hundreds of sheets of paper, I could find any to go with the pic? Nope. No chance.
