You can use iphoto or if you watch a few tutorials, iMovie. I like iMovie better but iPhoto is def easier to do a slideshow.

I've used iMovie to make one with multiple songs and editing and vie made ones right from my iPhoto you just add pics to an album and then hit slideshow at the bottom and then add your theme and music it takes all of 5 mins, you can see one I made for our engagement here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM9yGqpHbO4

How did you do the scrapbook style?? Is that a feature in iphoto or imovie? Some sort of template? I can't believe I have never used these programs before lol... really awesome!

Re: If you made your own montage

I've done that style in iPhoto and iMovie it gives you a choice when you pick your theme.
I know! I've had my Mac for almost 2 years and I'm still finding new things to do on it! Play around with it, if you need help just FM me :)

I made one for my brothers wedding using Powerpoint. My sister in law just suggested using Movie Maker for windows, so I might try that one when I'm making my own.

Re: If you made your own montage

For those of you who don't have a Mac, you can use Microsoft MovieMaker - I used it last year to make a montage for my grandmother's 80th birthday party.

I'm using it to make my montage, but I'm not using music b/c the slides will play continuously during CH and we already have live music.
