Parent Photo Albums

Original post by ellie424

I'm not sure if we're going to do parent albums. None of my siblings did parent albums. Well...my brother actually had parent albums in the photo package he had but then they were so busy after the wedding that they never actually submitted all of the photos for the albums to be completed. It's been 10 years now since they have been married so I doubt my parents will get one now! I would almost rather put the extra money that parent albums would cost towards including more photos in my wedding album. Do you think this is selfish??? I don't think my parents would mind considering they don't have albums from my 3 siblings who are already married and FH said he doesn't think his parents would mind either. What do you think?? Also, are you doing parent albums???

I just checked out Shutterfly's photo books! They are actually really nice and really reasonable!!! Also, I really like how you can get a leather cover with a photo on the cover. I am definitely going to do this!

We are not getting them they each will get a 8by10 a copy of the viedo, After the wedding we can also order more pictures online thur our photographer. so we will do that so they can have other pictures I will also have my photographer do a photo of just me for my parents and one of me and them

I agree with if your not doing a professional one atleast do a photobook from shutterfly or snapfish.

I have a lot of these books they are so easy to do and the quality is good they will love the thought behind it



My sister did that for her grandparent's albums....all her proofs were online and she ordered 2 books from Snapfish....they actually came out very nice and the book they came in looked professional anyway!



I LOVE snapfish. I'm doing the parent albums through them. Much cheaper and they're nice.

We're DIYing all of our photo albums... that may be an option to look into.

We're not doing parent albums w/ the photog. It was too expensive and my mother told me it wasn't necessary. Since my photog gives me the rights to all my pics I'm just going to make up albums for our parents on Shutterfly or Kodak Gallery myself

We aren't doing them with the photographer. Our parents do not want them. Each parent gets an 8x8 and we'll do albums on shutterfly or something.

my mom's got a shelf exclusively for her children's wedding albums so i cant imagine NOT having mine up there next to the other 5!

My mom would kill me if she didn't get an album.

We are able to pick specific pics for each parent so they don't have the exact same album of us.
