    I designed and ordered my wedding album from AdoramaPix.com and am SO happy with the result.  I used one of their wedding photo book templates and got a 12x 9 book with 72 pages for $179.  (the album looks a little like a yearbook, but that doesn't bother me.  I think if I had opted for the square option, rather than the portait style, it wouldn't have a yearbook-ish vibe).  The cover is a nice hardback cover and I LOVE the lay flat pages that Adorama has, so that there is no seam and you can have pictures span a 2 page spread.  The pages are also nice and thick.  I would highly recommend Adoramapix!  Easy to use and great quality.

     

    Here are some pictures to show some of the layouts and the lay flat pages (sorry they are so huge!)

    @glammy: Thanks so much!  

     

    Also wanted to add to the post: sorry for including the ugly carpet in my apartment in the pics, but the table was reflecting too much light!

    This turned out beautiful!  I have really been considering Adorama for our albums, so it is nice to see how they turn out.

    @kate6214: I am sure it will be beautiful!  

     

    @jordynrose: The quality is very nice, the pages are thicker and more sturdy than I expected.  But I also really liked how many layouts they had to choose from (and you can do the whole thing from scratch, but I am not that visually talented).  I chose one of their very minimalist templates and made some small adjustments to fit my needs, but they also have much more elaborate/decorative styles

    Yay!!  I am so glad that people think it looks great!  I am super happy with it, but I haven't gotten a chance to show it to a lot of people yet.

     

    We ordered professionally done parent albums from our photography company, and they were each almost the same price as our adoramapix album.  While the professional parent albums certainly are well done and look nice, they are much smaller and we didn't have any layout options.  I wish we would have just made them albums on adoramapix instead.  It would have been much less expensive and probably more personal.

    I am particularly happy that the photos I chose and the layouts I did ended up being great because I finally got the motivation to sit down and make the album design while I was hopped up on Rx migraine medication.  

    Nothing like dragging and dropping photos into page layouts when you feel like you are floating!  The next morning I was shocked that I had managed to come up with a coherent order and actually done some creative pages!
