Display

Your wedding album holds the most beautiful moments from your wedding day so it makes sense you want to display it in a beautiful place!  Whether you place it on your bookshelf or you coffee table, make sure you are placing it on a clean surface.  If possible, try to avoid leaving it in direct sunlight for extended periods of time as it can cause fading of the leather and cover photo!

Viewing

It goes without saying that you want to view your album on a flat, dry surface!  As exciting as it is to bring your album out during Thanksgiving or Christmas, I would suggest waiting until after all the food has been served and put away!

Storage

Believe it or not, how you store your wedding album is so important!  Laying your album flat is so much better for it than having it constantly standing up.  If your albums is always upright, pressure on the spine could begin to weaken the binding.  Just like you need rest, your album does too!  Lay it flat whenever possible.
