Did you or your parents...

choose the pictures for the parent albums?

Just wondering b/c MIL picked pics for her album & out out 20 pics she gets - only 3 are of DH & I 1 of MIL & DH, 1 of FIL & DH, & the rest are al of MIL & FIL....?????

There were some really great shots of different things that happened during the wedding & I would have thought she would have liked to have those memories in there...not mostly pics of her & my FIL at the table or dancing.

Am I nuts for thinking this?

Our parents chose the albums.. I think overall they all did a good job.. They all had 24 and they captured all of the highlights as well as included pics of them dancing, groups shots, etc.

We are paying for both parents' albums for Christmas presents. We haven't talked to them about picking photos yet. I assumed they would pick them.

I don't think you're nuts. I'm not like super surprised by them picking mainly pics of themselves. I guess that's what they wanted.

Our parents are picking them. I expect my parents will pick a mixture showing the events, but take a lot of tme getting ready and our family.

I am confident that In Laws will take more pics of their family then anything. I know for sure one of her 20 pics is going to be my BIL and his GF, which I think is an odd choice for one of only 20 pics.
