This can also highlight your time as a married couple/family and give you a chance to get “all dolled up” just like your wedding day. This is about creation not destruction. It is also a great way to add something unconventional to your wedding album. Some examples include: burn it, wet it, paint it, wax it, trash it, Roll around in the mud, etc.
