Wedding scrap book

Since we agreed not to have a professionally photographed wedding album, we decided to make a scrapbook of our lives - as individuals, as a couple, as well as of our families and friends.

So a couple of weeks before the Big Day, we brushed aside the cobwebs in our cupboard, blew away the layers of dust off the container that kept all our old photographs. It was quite a trip down memory lane.

We bought a nice wedding album from MPH with pages already pre-cut for us to put our photos. But we felt the layout was too restrictive for our mad, mad imaginations, so SP had a fabulous idea of making decorative backing for each page with nice wrapping papers. Now we could paste our photos any way we want.

Both of us put our thoughts and our version of the memories we had together - the vacation we took to Langkawi, Redang, Bukit Tinggi (now Berjaya Hills), our trips back home to our families, fun times with friends, and our Registration of Marriage.

I don't know if any of our guests actually browsed through the book, but both of us had fun preparing the scrapbook.
