The holidays are a wonderful time to turn your wedding photographs into something you can hold onto—and they also happen to be one of the busiest times of year for album and print orders.
If you’re hoping to have an album or photographs ready for Hanukkah or Christmas, here are the 2026 deadlines to keep in mind.
Wedding Album Deadlines
If you’d like your wedding album in time for the holidays, I recommend getting started early.
October 1, 2026: Submit your album selections by this date to receive $250 off your album.
October 21, 2026: Final deadline for albums intended for Hanukkah delivery.
November 3, 2026: Final deadline for albums intended for Christmas delivery.
Albums must be fully finalized by the applicable deadline to allow enough time for design, approval, production, and shipping.
If you haven’t looked at the album options yet, my Album Guide walks you through the different album sizes, cover materials, and the process for selecting your photographs.
Holiday Print Deadlines
I typically offer a Black Friday and holiday print sale, so if you’ve been meaning to order prints from your wedding gallery, the holidays are a great time to do it.
For standard prints, the 2026 holiday ordering deadlines are:
Hanukkah: Order by November 25, 2026
Christmas: Order by December 14, 2026
These deadlines apply to prints only. Framed photographs, specialty products, and other custom items require additional production time, so their holiday deadlines will be added here once my print lab releases the 2026 holiday schedule.
Don’t Wait Until December
The holidays have a way of sneaking up on us, and custom photo products take longer than simply placing an online print order. If you’re thinking about an album or photographs as a gift—or just want to have your wedding photographs displayed before the end of the year—I’d encourage you to start early.
And if you aren’t sure what you’d like, that’s completely fine. We can look at the options together and figure out what works best for you.
