Turn Your Wedding Photo Into a Christmas Card

Share the happiness and joy of your wedding day with Christmas photo cards.

The holiday season is a time for sharing memories with friends and family. While many people choose to share the highlights of their year with a traditional holiday letter, a picture is worth a thousand words! Chances are that your wedding day was one of the major highlights of your year, and likely a day where you both looked your best. Why not use one of your favorite wedding photos as a holiday card this year?

Custom Christmas Cards with Wedding Photo
Hey newlyweds! Use your wedding photo on custom printed holiday photo cards, and fall in love with the holiday season all over again. You can also put your engagement photos on a Christmas card.

Photo cards also double as a great way to get a photo out to everyone that asked for one. And for those greeting card recipients who didn’t attend your wedding, its a way for them to feel like they were there.

But we got married last March! Is it still okay to use our wedding picture for our holiday card?

Absolutely! As long as you were married within the last year, it is perfectly acceptable to share your wedding photo during the holiday season. After all it was a big event for the year, and Christmas is a time to reflect on those joys.

Can I use the photos from our wedding photographer?

Remember to check with your photographer to make sure you have the rights to reproduce their photo onto cards. If you purchased digital copies of the photos, check to see if the photographer included a digital print release.

Having a digital print release from your wedding photographer means you can have your wedding pictures printed anywhere. Just provide the print release when ordering your photos. In most instances, you just email the print release to customer service and they will keep it on file in case you order more prints.

Photo print centers require these releases if using professional images or copyrighted graphics—Studio Style also requires a digital print release if you choose custom printed Christmas photo cards. Not sure if you need a digital print release to order photos? Just ask your photographer.

How to use printed wedding photos in Christmas cards

If you received printed photos instead of the digital copies, you can always take 4″ x 6″ prints that you purchased from your photographer and slide them into photo frame style cards. It’s an easy DIY way to create instant photo cards! Studio Style offers photo insert christmas cards and custom printed holiday photo cards.

A pocket style photo insert card makes it easy to remove the picture and frame it long after the holiday season is over.

    Cute idea! We were going to do a regular family portrait but since we got married this past June I think I’m gonna steal this idea instead. 🙂
