Wedding Bliss

I finally finished our wedding album. After so many page layouts created in my head, this is what i came up with. Neat, simple, elegant - well at least that was what i was trying to accomplish. And i hope people who see them think the same way. I wanted to put focus on the picture so a few embellishments should do it. The setting was just so romantic it needed to be elegant so i used black cardstock as background. The layouts below are samples of the 13 page, 8x10 album.

December 8, 2007 - who would have thought i would get married on this day. It so happens that this is also my sisters birthday. Very memorable day indeed. Several years ago i thought i would never get married till after 30. So many things happen in one's life that lead to these thoughts. Being heartbroken several times will make you want to give up. If only i could have said one thing to myself during those times it would be "Be strong, you will be alright"... but then again, i think i did that. The best surprises come when you least expect it. You continue on with your daily life, enjoying every single moment of it, and suddenly there it is. You weren't even looking for it. Destiny has its ways of getting you. Simply amazing.
