What size wedding album did you choose?

What size are most people's wedding albums?

DH and I are redoing ours in a flushmounted professional style. I found a website I want to try out that sells discounted flushmounts-you do the layouts but they print and bind them for you.

Its still pricey but still much less expensive than going through a photographer obviously. However, I do not know what size I should go with. 10x10 is substantially less than 12x12 and though I'd love the bigger format, not sure an extra 2 inches is really worth the extra $$.

Whats the album size most of you ladies went with or are going togo with? TIA.

Re: What size wedding album did you choose?

I found a site like that too. If I decide to make one I think it'll be 12x12. I dunno if I'd do bigger cus of storing it. But thats just my situation now.

Re: What size wedding album did you choose?

Thanks girls..I am torn.

I mean its not a huge difference BUT I can get 4 extra sides if I did 46 pages in 10x10 for less than 42 pages in 12x12.... What do you think? Its only 2 inches so do you think the 2 inch difference is worth the 4 extra sides or just stick with 4 less sides in 12x12?

I have a 10x10 and a 12x12



Eliana, do you think the 10x10 is fine in regards to size or do you prefer the 12x12?

Re: What size wedding album did you choose?

I think ours is going to be 10x13 - - the 12x12 just seemed a little big and awkward to look at.

I think you might want to visualize some of the pages and see just how much the 2 inches will buy you in photo size - - what I meaqn is if you want to use a 5x7 pic what else can you put on that page and how big; 8x10 all by itself ?? how would 4x6 layout - - would you need 12x12 to layout or would it fit on 10x10.
hope that makes sense and helps w your decision.

we have 80 pics in magazine style. but we liked so many more that I did a slideshow w windows moviemaker and our first dance songs as background.

just love that.

you might want to try going in that direction - - I pop the dvd into player pretty often to remind me of the wonderful day.

if yopu want info on it fm me.

Thanks! We already have an album I did on Picaboo where I stuck in all our fave photos but this is sorta a trail for my own business so we are redoing our album in this format.

I think I am going to do 10x10 because the two inches doesn't add that much to the layput and I'd rather have a few extra pages for the same amoutn of money.

Thank you for your suggestions!

Re: What size wedding album did you choose?

Thanks ladies. I decided on 10x10 cause I'd rather lose 2 inches and gain a few extra pages. I did his B pic album in 12x12 and it was ratehr ungainly due to the size.
