As well as my Bespoke Wedding Magazine Albums, I love a good wedding album, and whenever my couples decide to get one with their wedding packages, I get pretty excited to create them.
Erin and Doug decided to do the double banger of a bunch of Bespoke Wedding Mags and a lush Flush Mount Fine Art Album. For the Fine Art album I went with NZ own Queensberry. Creating a Flush Mount Leather album, choosing Tan as the cover option (they have vegan friendly options like linen available too!). With lockdown and a few design checks and queries by the team at QB, it was around 4 weeks from placing the order to receiving the end product.
What I was pleasantly surprised with when first opening the package was the beautiful soft suede bag and grey presentation box. The cover had a beautiful soft texture which gave a premium feel and made the album feel special. The cover edges and spine are a bit rounder and softer than other comparable flush mount albums, but this also gives it a more gentler feel.
With this run, With a six colour offset print onto Tintoretto, which is felt-marked art stock with a distinct watercolour texture on both surfaces. Tintoretto has a matte finish, is of exceptional quality and, like our other offset stocks, specifically formulated for our digital-offset press. With this paper type and printing technique, there is a 1.5mm cut edge down the centre of the spread, which you need to keep in mind when laying out your design - or better yet, use the Queensberry Design service.
A couple of other features added to this album was a blind emboss title to the cover and a translucent slip inside front cover sheet, which adds just a little more luxe to and already beautiful album.
If you’re thinking of getting or adding an album to your wedding packages, I’d love to chat.
