Question Do you or did you have a wedding album made?

No, we eloped and there was only 4 people at our wedding. No photographers were around.

No. We only had about 10 pictures taken and I honestly don't even know where they are at the moment.

Yes, though we didn't get it until our 2nd anniversary. Most of the cost fo the album was included in the photographer's price, but the balance (around $200) was not an expense we could afford, so for our 2nd anniversary my sister and parents paid for our album.

Yes, but only because DH's father was a professional photographer. He took all the pictures for free and also made our album.

Just one I made myself. One of Steves uncles and one of mine took pictures for free. His uncle let us pick some out we wanted enlarged and he had that done.

Yep. We had a great photographer and had a great videographer. Julia likes watching our wedding video. I like looking at the album every now and then.

Yes, pictures are the one area we did not pinch pennies. I have a beautiful professional album and a separate scrapbook of candid/non-professional pictures. (Actually I have 2 because we had those little cameras at the reception)

A guy who used to do the photography at the firm I worked for used to do them for people at a reasonable price and he did ours. I supplied the album but he supplied two small ones for the moms.

Yes. I was working in a nursing home at the time abd my Director of Nursing's husband used to photograph weddings. He borrowed someone's camera and did awesome pics for us for free. He let us buy the ones we wanted on his account - I think we got all of them for less than $50. A friend made an album for us, but I am going to scrapbook them into a nicer one.
