Yes, you can travel to the US as a visitor while you have a visa application in process. It's not a problem despite there being a myth that has been around for two decades that I know of, and probably a lot longer, that you cannot travel to the US either [1] while you have a visa application in process, or that [2] you risk causing problems if you do travel to the US. Neither of these myths are true.
Strictly speaking you don't need any photos of your wedding. You can submit some if you like, but USCIS doesn't need a complete photo album, so 2 or 3 would be fine. Like other supporting records, don't go overboard, just some examples are fine and there is zero chance that your visa will be denied just because you didn't submit more wedding photos than some unpublished threshold number.

.... the I-130 usually takes around 12 months to process...
