In our last blog post, we talked about wedding album cover designs, and provided inspiration from real wedding album covers that our design team created for some of our customers. Now it’s time to move on to layouts.
But wait, before you default to the minimalist layout, consider this: your love story was anything but ordinary, and your album shouldn’t be either. While minimalist wedding albums have a certain timeless charm, they can sometimes feel…well, a little plain. That’s why we’re here to provide you with a treasure trove of creative layouts that capture the vibrant emotions and personal touches that make your wedding special and unique. So ditch the predictable and dive into a world of colors, patterns, and themes that let your wedding album sing!

Explore a Range of Wedding Photo Album Layout Themes
- Romantic Theme
This theme is ideal for couples seeking a wedding album imbued with elegance, and the magic that defines their love story. Picture your most tender moments framed by vintage lace patterns, (like in Jessica and John’s wedding album below), swirling calligraphy, intricate patterns, and emotive photo backgrounds (Like Krista and Eric’s wedding album below), each element amplifying the narrative of your special day.
- Foliage Theme
This theme is perfectly suited for couples who incorporated nature into their wedding, be it a garden wedding, a lakeside setting, or any other outdoor celebration. Imagine your photographs nestled amongst botanical motifs and lush leaves, bringing the organic beauty of your wedding day into your wedding album. As in Kaitlyn and Cameron’s wedding photo album, the foliage design does not overpower your precious moments; instead, adds a subtle layer of depth and tranquility.
- Playful Theme
Forget stuffy tradition, this theme is for the couples who bring a sense of playfulness and fun into their relationship. This is not your grandmother’s wedding album, it is a vibrant celebration of your unique personalities and unbridled love. Picture laughter-filled candid shots framed with bold colors, as in Allison and James’ wedding album layout (Photographs taken by Relic Photography), or the playfully skewed photograph angles of Tara and Mathieu’s album. So, if you’re a couple who marches to the beat of your own drum, this playful layout will capture the vibrance of your relationship perfectly.
- Color Block Theme
Make a modern statement with bold pops of color! This theme provides a dynamic and striking backdrop that can be tailored to match the color scheme of your wedding day. Think modern art, and an eye catching visual experience. Check out Elisa & Christian’s color coordinated album, and Mrs. and Mr. Dicks’ striking layout for some contemporary color block inspiration.
- Rustic Charm Theme
Picture your photos nestled amongst natural textures like weathered wood and burlap, or framed with rustic parchment paper like Jamie and Andrew’s gorgeous photos. Or imagine subtle, faded colors, and soft linen hues, with each page evoking a sense of comfort and connection. After all, this theme isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about capturing the essence of your commitment in a way that feels grounded and authentic. So, whether your wedding was held in a charming barn or a country house, the rustic charm wedding album layout will allow you to preserve your memories in a way that resonates with the organic warmth of your love story.
- Floral Theme
Flowers symbolize love, growth, and the blossoming of a new chapter in your life, making them a perfect metaphor for a wedding. Choose delicate roses for their timeless symbol of love, vibrant peonies for a touch of passion, or whimsical wildflowers for a playful touch. The possibilities are endless, allowing you to personalize the theme to reflect your unique love story. More than just aesthetics, the floral theme invites viewers to connect with the beauty and symbolism of your love, evoking feelings of joy, tenderness, and enduring growth. We love the delicate watercolor blooms that surround Elisa and Christian’s outdoor wedding photographs, adding a touch of elegance to their cherished memories.
But The Customization Does Not Stop There!
While themed layouts offer a convenient starting point for creative ideas, it does not end there. If you’re craving absolute individuality, a custom wedding album layout unlocks limitless possibilities. Picture hand-picked fonts weaving your story across the pages of your album, personalized color palettes echoing your wedding decor, or unique patterns reflecting your shared aesthetics. Imagine incorporating sketches, handwritten vows, love letters, personal anecdotes, quotes and more, creating a truly unique memory keeper.
For instance, Adam and Ashely wanted their wedding photo album to perfectly mirror the glamorous and geometric Art-Deco aesthetic of the 1920s and 1930s, which their wedding took inspiration from. The result is a glamorous layout incorporating bold geometric patterns, stylized fonts, and deep jewel tones.
- The Allure Of Minimalism and Classic Themes
We get it. You’ve considered all the creative options, but the allure of a minimalist, timeless or classic theme stands strong. We’ve got you covered here as well – Imagine your photos showcased in clean layouts, free from embellishments, with crisp white spaces highlighting the emotional depth of your vows. These themes are about letting your memories breathe, allowing your emotions and genuine connection to truly shine. We appreciate how Joanne and Tomiwa made a deliberate choice rooted in sophistication, elegance, and enduring value in choosing the timeless theme and letting their wedding photos speak for themselves. Or, Stephanie and Shane’s choice of a minimalist theme to allow their winter wedding to take center stage.
