Here’s a breakdown of how many photos you should include and the different album sizes that Everlast Prints offers, plus some personal anecdotes to help you decide!

Choosing the Right Number of Photos

Think of your wedding album as a storybook—each page should flow beautifully without feeling cluttered.

• 40-Page Album (80 Photos) – The Ultimate Storyteller – If you want a full, cinematic experience, this is your go-to. Perfect for couples who want to relive every major highlight of the day, from the teary-eyed morning prep to the wild dance floor moves.
• 30-page album (60 photos) The Perfect Balance – A great middle ground if you want a beautifully curated selection of your best wedding moments. This works well for couples who want their album to feel clean and timeless without too much clutter.
• 20-page album (40 photos) The Highlights Reel – If you love minimalism and simplicity, this is the best choice. It’s a highlight reel of the best moments—ideal for parents’ albums or a coffee-table keepsake.

A good rule of thumb? Prioritize those emotion-packed moments—your first look, vows, first dance, and those little in-between glances that say everything.

Which Album Size is Best for You?

Once you know how many photos you want, choosing the album size is the next step!

1. 20cm x 20cm Fine Art Album – The Sweet Keepsake

Perfect for smaller collections, intimate elopements, or as a special parent album. It’s light, easy to flip through, and a great way to relive your wedding highlights.

2. 30cm x 30cm – The Showstopper

This is the wedding album. If you want a statement piece that holds all the grand moments in stunning detail, this is it. A couple once told us they kept theirs on their coffee table, and every time friends or family visited, they flipped through it, reliving their day over and over. It’s big, bold, and perfect for couples who want a lasting centerpiece.

3. 20cm x 30cm – The Elegant Classic

This horizontal album has a modern touch, great for storytelling. It beautifully balances portrait and landscape shots, making it ideal for those dreamy couple photos and heartfelt ceremony moments. One of our couples loved how this size let them include a full-page shot of their vows while keeping everything sleek and elegant.

4. 20cm x 20cm – The Sweet Companion

This is the perfect album for parents or as a mini keepsake for yourself. It’s small but mighty—great for showcasing your absolute favorite shots in a beautifully compact way. I remember one of our brides gifting this size to her grandparents, and they carried it everywhere, proudly showing it off like a prized possession!

Final Thoughts

Your wedding album should feel like you—a collection of moments that transport you right back to your big day. Whether you go for the grand 30cm x 30cm or the intimate 20cm x 20cm, the key is to choose photos that tell your story in the most meaningful way.
