I recently made one for my daughter, I put the printed fabric photos in squares with star points. I used her wedding colors of satin for the top (real pain), then backed it with satin. It turned out nice, she wanted it tied with satin ribbon, which I did, except now her cats are chewing on the ribbons, may have to bring it back when I finish this other one for her. She has to have coordinating sheets with her quilts, so now she's getting a blue one.

I seen one on this site that someone had a link, check search for wedding quilt or photo quilt. Someone posted a link that used the actual wedding dress for the pattern and wow was that beautiful.
