memories in hand

I believe that every couple should walk away from their special day with their memories literally in hand. Imagine: Friends, family, and guests come over with these beautiful albums laid out on your coffee table, just waiting to be admired.

Who wants to show off their wedding photos from the harsh glow of a computer? Who wants to filter through hundreds of digital photos?

That’s why I gift every one of my couples a book in the final package.

 

the gifted album

That’s right– you receive a gifted book with both the Courthouse or Signature Collection! 

This 8 x 8 flush mount linen cover album is non-customizable. The pages are the thinnest of all the albums. Yours truly will be selecting the images and cover design. I will carefully curate my favorite images to display the beautiful story of your special day.

I prefer larger (1-4) images per panoramic page.  This book is a sweet surprise in your final package, usually delivered 3 to 4 weeks after the wedding. It cannot be removed from the collection for a discounted rate since it’s a gift from me to you and holds no exchange value.

 

 

The Classic Wedding Album

This is a 10 x 10 album with a total of 40 sides. (Yours for an add-on fee.) Everything in this album is customizable– you can choose your own spine design and cover material. There is a slight cut in the middle which does make it easier to go left to right in switching pages but I definitely would not recommend laying out images where a person’s face would be in the center. The pages are the thickest of all 3. It’s nice and solid!

These albums usually takes 2 weeks to print and deliver to your home.

This is really for the couple wanting a professional-looking wedding album that they can’t make themselves. It’s definitely a sleek upgrade from a standard hardcover book that you can make at Costco!

 

The Luxury Italian Wedding Album 

This is a 9×13 horizontal album with a total of 40 sides. Yours for an upgraded fee. It is definitely the “Louis Vuitton” of albums!

What makes this album so unique is the modern metal cover. Its luxurious heft and shine will wow your friends and family! You’ll have two cover options: One with a small square image to the side or one with a large full image on the metal cover. Both come with your names and wedding date. 

This is the only album that has the option to duplicate for a Parents version sized at 8 x12″.  The main difference is that it comes in a hard cover instead of a metal cover.  

The final album is shipped 6 weeks after approval since it’s being made and delivered straight from Italy! It comes packaged in a luxurious box with your names engraved.

 

album customization

Whether you choose the classic or luxury wedding album, both options allow for full customization.

Here’s a breakdown of the process:

1. Easily select your favorites from your online gallery and send those images to me.
2. I’ll create a first draft based off your favorites and will send you an online proofing site to make changes.
3. You will have up to 3 drafts to get it looking exactly as you desire! 
4. Once the layout is approved, I’ll do some extensive editing and then send it to the lab.

Yes, it’s THAT easy!

 

the beautiful bottom line

Whatever album you choose, just know that you will walk away with at least the 8×8 coffee book and from there you can decide if you’d prefer to purchase or upgrade to a classic or Italian wedding album.

I genuinely adore these album companies. I believe in them and I believe in the value of having prints! Keep in mind you have the option to add this on even after your wedding. It makes a great one year wedding anniversary gift!
