Wedding and Anniversary Gift Idea: Custom Photobooks

From personal experience, the most exciting gift to give and receive from your spouse is a yearly photobook containing all the memories you’ve shared as a couple. Mixbook.com is a great service that will allow you to upload your photos from your computer or Facebook, Instagram and most other photo sharing programs available online. Templates are available for you to use and customize, or you can start completely from scratch and decide on everything from backgrounds to borders and “clipart” (called ‘Stickers” on Mixbook). Once you’re done creating, you order your book and they ship it to you. There are so many options as far as size, shape, and hard or soft covers. I am always impressed with the quality and we both enjoy looking back on the years and love notes we write at the end of each book. A very romantic and meaningful gift indeed.

New from Mixbook: create a guestbook complete with photos of the couple for wedding guests to record their thoughts and love on your very special wedding day! This service is so easy to use with stunning results!
