You really did a brilliant job! steal away!! i got a lot of my ideas on layouts from another girl who made a book and posted her ideas on another website. she gave me the idea of leaving some of the photo slots blank, which really made all of the difference in the book to me and made me really happy with the layouts because i could alter them to fit my needs. she also gave me the idea of the lyrics of the songs printed next to the dance photos.

Is your cover a photo or is it the cloth like fabric ones? thank you so much! the cover is a photo - it is a book jacket like any book you would find at a book store. it even prints on the spine of the book jacket, which is a nice touch.

So just wanted to add that your book is amazing! I wish I had seen it before I made mine because you have many great ideas, i.e. It looks like you left some of the photo slots empty on some of your pages right? That's a good idea, would have maybe helped for some of the pages where there was no layout that met my needs (like discribed above re: horizontal and vertical photos). I also love the pages that have tons of photos (I had one page with 8 photos and that was the most) and I so wish I had thought of the idea of putting the invitation wording on the first page! I did think of putting our vows next to a picture of my husband saying his, I love that page!
Also your photos are amazing! Who was your photographer? thanks so much! like i mentioned above, i got a lot of my ideas regarding the layout and leaving out the photos from another girl's book that i saw. i understand what you were saying about the layout options and then after seeing hers, realized that you can do things like that to make it fit your style much better. my photographer was elizabeth medina and i am absolutely sure that it would not have turned out even a tenth of what it did without her amazing talent and artistic photos. i am very blessed to have had her as our photographer!
thank you all for your positive feedback! i think our mom's will LOVE them and i can't wait to see their reactions!
