Wedding Anniversary Scrapbooking Ideas

by: Ifiok Ekon

Are you looking for wedding anniversary scrapbooking ideas to help you create a unique gift for a special couple for their anniversary? This article has many simple ideas that you can use to create a wonderful and lasting wedding anniversary gift.

One of the most important wedding anniversary scrapbooking ideas you can use for an anniversary scrapbook is to have the couple’s wedding picture on either the first or last page of the scrapbook.

A copy of the wedding invitation makes a really great introduction to the scrapbook. A scrapbook makes a creative anniversary gift for any anniversary year, but it is particularly effective for milestones such as the first anniversary, silver, diamond or golden anniversaries. For the 25th, 50th or 60th wedding anniversaries, you can start the scrapbook with the wedding photo.

Other scrapbooking ideas you can use are:

Photos of the couple during each year of their marriage

Photos of the couple’s family at various stages of growth

Photos of memorable occasions, such as weddings of the children

Photos of the couple with their grandchildren

Photos of trips and vacations

Wedding scrapbooking ideas, for the first year of marriage could include:

Photos of the planning done for the wedding

Copy of the wedding service

Place cards

Bridal registry

List of gifts received

Ribbons to represent colors used in the wedding

Wedding favors that was used

Notes about planning mishaps

You can also include the following in the Wedding anniversary scrapbook:

Pressed flowers

Napkins

Christmas pictures of the couple together

Letters and notes that the couple has written funny scenes from their lives together

Invitation to the anniversary party

Photos of the party

The colors you choose for embellishing the scrapbook should represent the year of the anniversary. For example, 25th anniversary is silver, 50th is gold and 60th is diamond. The colors used in other wedding anniversary scrapbooking ideas could be the colors the couple chose to have at their wedding or their own favorite colors.
