Load your Photos into a Digital Frame

There are so many snaps of their wedding day that it becomes difficult to select only a few to print out. A digital photo frame is a versatile option to have the photos rotate. Or, turn your smart television into art mode to add images onto the big screen in your living room when you’re not watching.

Hang a Gallery Wall

A gallery wall is a great way to mix and match other prints and decor items that you already have with your wedding photos in your living room without having your romantic photos being the focal point. Mix the artistic shots (like the pictures of your dress hanging or shoes or images shot from afar) with your favourite closeup to give the gallery wall some variety.
