Wedding
Wedding word cloud portraits
A wedding gift that is about the two of them rather than the household: their wedding photo, rebuilt out of the words of the day. The vows, the place, the song, the names of the people who were there.
Most couples come home with hundreds of wedding photos and hang none of them. This one goes on the wall because it is more than a photograph: from across the room it is their wedding day, and up close it is their story, word by word. It works as a gift from the guests, from the parents, or from one of them to the other on the first anniversary.
