Default wedding books

I read in a few posts people are using different places to have wedding books made, ya know like the kind you put on a coffee table. A couple people mentioned mypublishing.com. I checked it out looks awesome. Now are you able to actually sell these to your clients as products you offer? how does that work exactly. If i set it up and have them bind it, is it actually mine to sell?

thanks

You just design the pages, send the pages to them, they print it off, they send it to you. Then you give it to your client at a markup.

Did you mean mypublisher.com? The one you gave is just parked, nothing there yet. If you mean the one I listed, they are fairly cheap, like $60us for a 20 page deluxe book. Also I think thats 20 page, 10 sheets, which is rather thin I think. And I would want to see a sample first before offering it to a client, just incase thier quality is subpar.

There is also www.candid2000.com that offers a book like this for $199us I think. And then there is www.classicalbum.com for $495us. Im not sure what the benifit of the last one is, since your paying way more for it. It may come with the software to make the page layout easier. The candid2000 one's templates looks rather cheesy.

This is all something that im giving lots of thought into as well.

There is even www.lulu.com but thier softcover books. But on the brightside, you can sell the books from the site and make money off of it. You can get an isbn and sell it that way to. Or get the pro isbn thing and it can be sold from the major book resellers, but thats way expensive, like $150us I think.
