Here's how it works: Make your selections using the drop-down menus above.

1. Choose the color album you'd like for your background.

We offer the photo album bound in the following colors: Ivory or Black.

2. Choose an accent color

This color will be used for the two colored borders as well as the printing ink. Our color palette is shown below:

3. Choose Small or Large Album.

Small Album Features:

Dimensions: 10" x 10"

Usable page area: 9 1/2" x 9 3/4"

Page count: 50 pages (100 sides)

This album will hold one 5x7 photo, or two 4x6 photos per page

4. Fill in the blanks for your personalized inscription

Your single initial will be typeset in our signature "Garamond" Font. Examples of the font are shown here:

Most people order the book with the bride and groom's names on line 1, and the wedding date on line 2, but you can say anything you want! Feel free to get creative. Consider using a passage from scripture or a few lines of a poem. Its your book, so say anything you want!

Your inscription will be typeset in Garamond font, exactly the way you type it. If you prefer to have no inscription, just leave the boxes empty.

5. Add the photo album to your cart and complete your order.

6. We'll prepare and email you a digital proof

Within a few days, you will receive an email with a digital proof to show you what your choices look like together. Your purchase includes two FREE digital proofs. Additional proofs can be created for you at an additional cost of $10 per proof. The art department can arrange this for you.

We want to ensure that all information used in the book's design is correct, so we'll ask for your approval before completing the final assembly of the book.

7. We'll create your photo album and deliver it a few days after receiving your approval.

A few notes regarding the design process:

Your final print color may be slightly different from the colors in your digital proof. Because the cardstock we print to is ivory with warm undertones, colors sometimes appear warmer than your original. We do our best to adjust for this color shift, but exact color matching cannot be guaranteed.

The order form has a box for you to make comments. Please take advantage of this space to let us know about special requests, such as colors, cropping, etc...

If you have any questions or need any assistance, please call us or click here to send us an email.
