I saw someone recommended Blurb many times here (for Brides who are on a budget). I almost ordered one from Fotobook (from UK), but now think I would go w/ the regular ablum instead. You might want to check out Vision Art too.

its a consumer product, not sure why you thought it would make a good wedding album. Literally hundreds of choices. available. Graphi is a world wide favorite and an album of choice for us. White wedding album and KISS are good and decently priced, picto is great quality, zook book, leather craftsman, kingston are more are all available.

Have you thought of using a high quality lab to output your prints, and then assemble your own albums? This would give you a wide size option, page layout capability, and choices of vinyle, leather, wood, etc. for the actual albums.

+1 for Pictobooks. Their price might be a bit high, but I've never had to deal with any quality control issues... and my clients are always marveled at how different it is versus a regular album.
