Can i hang up a photo of only myself taken on my wedding day or is that conceited? i want 2 hang it on my wall

Question

It's really a pretty picture but there aren't any pictures of my husband by himself so thats why I wonder if its conceited or not. thanks!

Answer 1

It's okay if it's in your bedroom. Not in the living room, or any common area.

Answer 2

Depends how big the picture is... If its poster sized that might be a bit conceited! LOL

Answer 3

if your husband doesn't object go for it

Answer 4

Balance it out with a picture of him.  You-re  a couple remember??   On the other hand they are your walls.

Answer 5

I went through the same thing last year.  My husband picked out a picture of just me on the wedding day that he wanted hung next to a picture of the two of us and another one of him, my son, and myself.  I guess since it is with the other pictures (and is not the main picture) it looks just fine.  I say go for it!

Answer 6

Not conceited at all.

Most professional wedding photos are artsy and tasteful anyways, so it's probably beautiful and I'm sure your husband agrees.  If you're worried maybe hang it with other family portraits or in the bedroom.  If you find a nice one of him from any other time it might make you more comfortable to hang them both.

Besides, it's so rare for many of us to love ourselves in a photo, hang it up and don't worry about what guests think.  Most people just keep wedding photos in an album and rarely look at them, that seems like a possible waste of money, at least this way you are making use of it!

Answer 7

I don't think it's conceited. A) I'm sure you paid good money to get pictures of your wedding. Should they all be hidden away in a book? of course not! Display, Display. B) "Back in the Day" when a woman got married, wealthier families commissioned bridal portraits (oil paintings of course) of ONLY the bride, to be displayed over a mantel or in another prominent place. I think it's a tradition that should come back, especially since almost everyone can afford to have a picture enlarged and framed. And finally C.  If you feel you look gorgeous in that picture, seeing it every day can only help you have that feeling all the time.

PS...Find a pic of the two of you that you like and display it as well (albeit smaller) so your husband feels good too.

Answer 8

No. It's not conceited. At our house, we have 2 pictures of my parents together on heir wedding day and one picture of my mom by herself. She looks really pretty. I love her dress. Don't worry. It's not being conceited at all. My parents don't have a picture of my dad alone either. It's normal. Don't feel bad. if you still feel bad, then ask your husband the question. He'll probably be glad that you asked and happy to say that he would love to see a picture of you!

Answer 9

I don't think there is anything wrong with that, but if you are concerned, perhaps hang some pictures of both of you in your main room (entrance to your home or loungeroom) and then the one of you somewhere else. That way, you can eventually get a picture of just your husband and put it in another room again, so it's all evened out :)

But in the end, it was your wedding day, and I'm sure you looked like a million bucks, and it's your home, so don't worry about what other people think. If they think ill thoughts, then they shouldn't be in your home in the first place!

Answer 10

I have bought five picture frames together that are the same color and everything just different sizes and I am going to hang my wedding pic and my husbands pics side by side, then below those two will be childhood pics of each of us and below that will be one of our baby boy. All in black and white. It will look like this:

                               *    *

                              *      *

                                  *

Answer 11

no that's not conceited at all! it was your day you go ahead and hang the picture! you have others of you and you husband! you can hang those next to it

Answer 12

Hang it in your bedroom ... the one with both you should be in a public area like the living room but the ones by yourself shouldn't

Answer 13

Not at all. Hang with with the two of you next to it or near it.

Answer 14

No. It's what they call a BRIDAL portrait. It's been done for ages! And photographers usually arrange for them on their own. It's the bride's day and she is usually the one who shines. Hang that pic with pride!

Answer 15

I don't think it's conceited at all! You look beautiful and want to show yourself off!! There is absolutely nothing wrong with it!! Good luck!

Answer 16

No, it's not conceited.  Maybe a little selfish.  You should find a nice picture of the two of you and hang that.  I'm sure your husband would like that.

Answer 17

I think if you balance it out with pictures of both of you, maybe get a nice picture of him alone, and your husband is fine with it, go for it!
