Wedding Photo Frame 60×40 cm

Photo Frame 60×40 cm – Make Your Wedding Photo the Heart of the Room

Small frames are lovely for shelves and side tables, but some photos are simply too good to keep small. The one that made you both cry when the gallery arrived. The wide shot of the ceremony, with every guest turned towards you. The portrait that looks like it belongs in a magazine. Our photo frame 60×40 cm gives that image the scale it deserves. At roughly 23.6 x 15.7 inches, it’s a proper wall feature, the kind of picture people notice the moment they walk into the room.

It’s built from smooth MDF, glazed with HD plexiglass rather than glass, and finished in black, white, oak or rustic, with hanging hooks fitted to the back.

Shaped for Your Photographer’s Images

Most professional wedding photographers shoot on full-frame or APS-C cameras, which capture images in a 3:2 shape. A photo frame 60×40 cm has exactly the same proportions, and that brings some real advantages:

• Nothing gets cut off. The composition your photographer carefully chose stays intact, right to the edges.
• Prints are easy to order. 60×40 cm is a standard large-format size at UK photo labs, and many wedding photographers offer it in their print packages.
• It’s large enough for detail. Lace, embroidery, flowers and expressions all hold up beautifully at this scale, so a high-resolution file really shines.
• It handles group shots. The whole bridal party, or both families together, fit comfortably without anyone looking tiny.

If you’d like a smaller print with a border, an A3 image (42 x 29.7 cm) sits well inside a photo frame 60×40 cm with a mount around it. Please note that an A2 print (59.4 x 42 cm) is slightly too tall for this frame.

Looking for a different scale? The 40×30 cm wedding frame suits smaller walls. The 64×45 cm wedding frame is a touch larger. If you prefer inch sizes, the 20×16 inch wedding frame is a good mid-sized option.

On a frame of this size, the 30 mm moulding gives a clean, contemporary outline. It frames the image confidently without turning into a heavy, old-fashioned border. The slim 15 mm depth keeps it close to the wall, and the 8 mm rebate gives the plexiglass, print and backing board a secure, snug fit. MDF stays straight and true across the full 60 cm length, so the frame won’t bow or twist over time.

Why Plexiglass Matters on a Large Frame

Glass becomes a real problem as frames get bigger. A sheet this size is heavy, awkward to handle and dangerous if it breaks. That’s why every photo frame 60×40 cm is glazed with HD plexiglass instead:

• It’s far lighter, so the finished frame is easier to lift, level and hang, and puts less strain on your wall fixings.
• It’s shatter-resistant, which brings real peace of mind for a large frame in a family home or above a sofa where people sit.
• It’s optically clear, so colours, skin tones and fine detail come through crisp and true.
• It arrives safely, because large glass panes are prone to cracking in transit, while plexiglass is much more robust.

Both sides are covered with a thin protective film. Remove both layers before you insert your print.

Choosing a Finish for a Large Wedding Photo

At this size, the frame colour plays a bigger role in the room, so it’s worth thinking about your walls and furniture as well as the photo itself.

Black creates a bold, gallery-style outline that suits black-and-white images and modern interiors. Its subtle wood grain keeps it from feeling stark.

White gives a light, airy finish that feels soft and romantic. On a pale wall, it lets a large photo look almost borderless.

Oak adds warmth and works beautifully in living rooms with wooden floors, natural textures and plenty of greenery.

Rustic has a weathered, characterful grain. It’s ideal for country homes, exposed brick and relaxed, vintage-style wedding photos.

Tips for Hanging a Large Wedding Frame

A photo frame 60×40 cm looks its best when it’s positioned with a little care:

• Hang it at eye level. As a guide, aim for the centre of the photo to sit around 145–150 cm from the floor. That’s the height many galleries use.
• Leave a gap above furniture. Above a sofa or sideboard, a space of about 15–25 cm between the furniture and the bottom of the frame looks balanced.
• Use the right fixings. Choose wall plugs or picture hooks suited to your wall type, whether plasterboard, brick or plaster. Using two fixing points helps the frame stay level.
• Make it a two-person job. One person holds the frame in place while the other checks the position and level from across the room.
• Mark before you drill. A strip of painter’s tape on the wall makes it easy to mark the position without leaving pencil lines.

The Ultimate Wedding Gift

If you’re looking for a present that feels truly special, a large framed print is hard to beat. A favourite photo in a photo frame 60×40 cm makes a memorable gift for the newlyweds, a heartfelt thank-you for parents who helped make the day happen, or a show-stopping first anniversary surprise. Paper is the traditional first anniversary gift, so a photographic print fits perfectly. To find matching frames for family members in smaller sizes, browse our full range of wedding photo frames.

Getting Your Print In

Because this is a larger frame, a clear table or a clean floor gives you the most room to work. Lay a soft blanket down first, then place the frame face down on it. Release the fixings, lift out the backing board and the plexiglass, and peel away the protective film. Lay your print face down on the plexiglass, making sure it’s centred. Then refit the backing board and secure the fixings. Before hanging, hold the frame up to the light and check for any trapped dust. It’s much easier to fix now than once it’s on the wall.

Keeping It Looking Good

A large frame collects a little more dust, so a quick wipe with a dry, soft cloth every couple of weeks keeps it looking fresh. For marks on the plexiglass, use a microfibre cloth with a drop of mild soapy water. Avoid ammonia-based glass sprays and paper towels, as both can damage acrylic. A spot away from strong direct sunlight and damp conditions will keep both the frame and your print in top condition for years.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size photo fits a photo frame 60×40 cm?

A 60×40 cm print fits edge to edge. For a smaller print, such as A3, use a mount to fill the extra space.

How big is 60×40 cm in inches?

60 x 40 cm is about 23.6 x 15.7 inches.

Will my wedding photographer’s images fit without cropping?

Usually, yes. Most professional cameras shoot in a 3:2 shape, which is the same as this frame. It’s always worth checking with your photographer if the images have been edited or cropped.

Is 60×40 cm the same as 24×16 inches?

They’re very close. 24 x 16 inches is about 61 x 40.6 cm, so it’s slightly bigger. Order your print at 60 x 40 cm for a perfect fit.

Will an A2 print fit?

No. A2 measures 59.4 x 42 cm, so it’s about 2 cm too tall for this frame.

Is it heavy to hang?

Because we use plexiglass rather than glass, it’s much lighter than a glass frame of the same size. Even so, we recommend using fixings suited to your wall type.
