Should your wedding picture has been taken with a wedding photographer, you will likely have to get authorization from your photographer to reproduce the picture digitally on the photo greeting card. On the other hand, have your pictures commercially made and mount them on Christmas photo greeting cards using adhesive tape that's usually already positioned on the photo card.
