wedding album question

DH and I are turning in our album order tomorrow. We're supposed to pick 60 and have it narrowed down to 75 (out of over 600). i don't know how to cut the rest. We are thinking of just paying to keep them -- but trying not to since it will be several hundred dollars and we're already upgrading our album to a diff type (so already spending extra money).

THe only thing we can think of is to cut some of the bridal party pics. Right now - we have individual pics of me with each of the BM (5), a group shot of me with all the BMs, DH with his guys individually (3 - one pic has two of them in it), a group shot of him with all the GM and RBs, a shot of me with the GM, a shot of DH with the BMs, and two pictures of the full bridal party.

Is it bad if we cut out the shots of the bride with each individual bridesmaid and the groom with each individual groomsmen? We'd probably leave the ones with the MOH and best man and we'd also have the group shots.

Help! I know this is ultimately our decision, but I am going a little batty!

IMO, I'd cut out the individual shots of you w/ each BM and just keep it to the group shot.

Re: wedding album question

We only had group pictures of the bridal party, and I think just one with the maid of honor, and one of DH with the Best Man.

ITA. I did end up printing these pics later on for the bridal party (as a thank you gift), but I did not keep each individual shot for myself.

Definately cut out the pictures of you with all the bridesmaids. It takes up too many pictures especially when you are over. I don't have any of myself with my BM's as individual shots in my album! I did the group shots & then one with my MOH.

I agree too. and this is JMO, but adding 15 pictures should not cost you several hundred $'s! that is CRAZY! Chat Icon try and negotiate it down.

I agree. I have the same thing. It takes up too many pictures

Re: wedding album question

Thanks for all the help! We did end up cutting the individual pics with the BM and GM and only kept me with my maid of honor and DH with his best man. We cut some other photos too. Still went a little over our 60, but not 15 over! Thanks again! Now I can't wait to actually GET the album!!

Re: wedding album question

I would definitely cut the individual shots of you and your husband with the bridal party. JMO. I don't have those in my album.

Our photography place let us have the extra pics and didn't charge us to add them into our album.

Re: wedding album question

Our photographer advised us to do the group shot as well and maybe one with you and your MOH

Re: wedding album question

Uhh...I know that feeling! I added 10 additional shots and it cost me another $300 or so. The first shots I would cut out would be you with the groomsmen and your Dh with the Bridesmaids. How many do you want to cut out? Next I would say the individual ones with the BM's. I would say stick with the group shots and the one with you and the MOH and DH with the BM
