Stuff I liked:
- You avoided the common mistake of designing something flashy that will be old in 3 years
- The photos look good
- Some of the pages (like the cake shot) look great as full pages

Stuff I didn't like:
- It was a little too boxy for me
- Faded pictures with others overlayed on top (you didn't do it much though)

Hope that helps!

Thanks Tony! Can you tell my what you mean by "boxy"? Do you think the design was too simple?

Very nice.

One question - nooby question...

What software did you use to do this? Or how did you do this and is this what will be printed?

Thank you.

Very nice. I think the only thing that will date is the jumping shot.

My one suggestion is the very last page. I would finnish with an image of them kissing or a detail image like the cake or just their hands. The shot you have used is not strong.

But stunning otherwise i'm sure they will be ecstatic when they see it.

Thank you! I used Photoshop and Fundy's album actions. I will probably have Forbeyon print the album.

Marcus- thanks for your suggestion on the last page. I do have a nice shot of their hands, maybe I will switch it out. I do realize that the jumping shot will get dated...but so will everyone's clothes ;-) I actually only do this shot if the couple asks for it.

Boxy as in very linear looking. Pictures with black or white strokes that are just placed on top of other things. Hope that helps

Bit surprised you chose the image at the top of the post where the highlights are slightly blown.
