While a neutral frame is usually best to let your wedding photos truly shine (you don't want it to steal the spotlight), that doesn't mean that you're only stuck with boring displays. The muted, swirling pattern on this frame creates a stunning yet subtle look. The tiles aren't perfectly geometrical, which adds a bit of character, while the gold corners add a touch of glam.

We love the understated glamour that this Olivia Riegel picture frame brings to the (literal) table. This free-standing easel frame can be displayed either horizontally or vertically and is available in three different sizes. It also doesn't skimp on the sparkle, thanks to the hand-set European crystals that are fashioned into a pair of pretty plumes encrusting the frame's beveled glass.

Due to their unfussy style, floating frames can fit right into the decor of any room. We especially love them for smaller spaces and studio apartments, where any bit of clutter can make a room seem smaller. These floating frames keep things open and airy by displaying photos through two clear panes of frame-grade acrylic, clasped by either black or brass bolts.

Choose your hardware and your desired frame size, then upload your photo of your choice. With your pic printed on premium giclée paper, the whole piece arrives at your doorstep fully finished and ready for hanging.
