Answer: The Wedding Album

This album marked a come back of sorts for the band, as "Ordinary World" was their biggest hit in years. It's also known as "The Wedding Album" because of the wedding pictures on the album cover and the first Duran Duran album was also self-titled, so it helps prevent confusion.
