Next Steps


Let’s Get Started

We’re truly excited to create a beautiful wedding photo book that you can hold and cherish forever! To begin designing your personalized layouts we require a 50% deposit of your base total. Once we receive the deposit, we’ll prepare a curated sample using your photos to thoughtfully tell the story of your special day.

You will receive an online link to review the sample, leave your comments, and approve the book when you’re ready. We’ll continue making adjustments and refinements until the photo book until you’re completely happy with it.

 

Finalize Your Details

You can customize your book in many different ways, so feel free to take your time carefully considering all the options. When you are ready, simply let us know your choices including the cover type and colour, any text you want with your preferred style and colour, as well as any additional upgrades you may want to include.

 

Off To Print

Once you approve your layout and provide all customization options, we’ll send it in to print! Your remaining balance, including any upgrades, will be due then.

Because the books are handmade and hand bound it will take about 6-8 weeks to complete in addition to doing our own quality check and review before sending it to you. If you’re local to Toronto you can pick up IRL, otherwise we’ll mail it directly to you with tracking via Canada Post.
