Candy, every state imposes varied tax, like our GST, tourist or not, the price tag is added with additional tax; same applies to Europe. I reckon Eileen meant that for the same item, you may end up paying a higher price due to tax. (list price + tax) Cab is exorbitantly, outrageously high. =P...

true, Noella, once the music of the festivities fades down, we get back into the busy pace. I 'graduated' on 01 Feb 07... (^_^)v and I am still updating my wedding blog... although not as active as before, but I have to admit that I can't get enough of it. (~_~")

woo hoo!! So we are a bunch of 'graduates'! I am not lingering so much now, except for the replies sent to my email. And..errrhemmm.. I am married for quite a while already... Time flies eh... But I can use some joy here by feeding off the fun of the newer weds. (^_^)

It's like any photography books you get in the bookstore, it's definitely not solid hard like the pro wedding book. Even the premium paper is just slightly thicker than their regular ones. This is one of the reasons why I printed the photobook. I am not quite a fan for thick books, limited...

Kling, you may want to read up the older replies in this thread, I believe there were other recommendations of local vendors. You may then see if you could go see see look look at the quality. I am very online person, and have been buying/selling online for the longest time, so I am very comfy...

I only have actual day photography, so didn't display anything at reception. I had been to several weddings that displayed large photo albums at reception, a little hurried to go through the pages because other guests were waiting to see too. Then again, it's excellent for early birds who might...

Not a great difference, but I print artwork a lot, so I can feel the difference, but generally, I would say, the diff is very slight. I would notice that the print is less 'see-thru' from pages, but for others like my husband and parents, they were only interested in the pictures, and not...

Hey shermaine, I believe this can be done within days. I procrastinated a little because my HDD crashed, and to reinstalled everything else killed a little of joy to anything else. Personally, I think the photos that the professional/studio photographer provides would be of ready to use...

I choose the landscape portrait. I paid USD24.88 (should cost me USD53), but I paid half the price only (there was promotion back then). You can use the price list to estimate the price though. I printed the wedding book with premium paper, image wrap. I just received my travel book, it's a...

I sent my travel book for printing.. finally! http://mikelisfairytale.wordpress.com/2009/04/27/alas-the-travel-book-is-sent-for-printing/ I am such a dork, I just realized that I can also print with iPhoto (Mac) since I am using Mac, and seems like the binding is better. May try out with...

hui, thanks for the kind words. It's really great that you've reconciled with that small hiccup. I must say that it's really common for others to remark, especially so in Singapore eh, we are so quick to criticize, and yet overlooking the impact we may have caused for the concerned...

blog migrated (see blurb book that I printed here): http://mikelisfairytale.wordpress.com/2008/09/19/wedding-book-printed-with-blurb-arrived/ The previous link will not work, because I moved the blog out to be hosted with wordpress.com hosting.

deerixp, sorry for late reply, I just came back from HongKong/Macau. Yes, you can just add the pages as you go along.

oh.. I think for now, I will stick with Blurb. It's very individual though, at present, blurb meets my budget and needs, and that's quite enough for me. Lynn, would you pm me your blog too?

LuvMez, remember that blurb is priced in USD, I can't see the price of fotohub, so I can't check against the prices. Blurb offers attractive and competitive price though. The only thing is that I believe that fotohub may be having better binding. Blurb's binding is stitch binding, but the...

Hey luvmez, I used blurb to print my wedding book. The second book was printed with premium paper (slightly thicker paper), and I selected imagewrap option. There are several formats to choose from, so that you can just drag your photos to the box and adjust accordingly. I can't comment...

whoody, blurb's smartbook comes with 2 versions, mac and win. My wedding book was creating with my imac, using blurb's smartbook. so far so good. you can download it to try out eh

Oh.. fotohub has been offering this photobook service for the longest time. I remember it was too 'expensive' by my standard. I can't view the prices though, the pricelist is in .exe format, I am using Mac, so that doesn't work for me. (~_~")

Don't mention it, just wanted to bounce ideas around. Think the modern brides prefer to add a dash of personal touch to their wedding, so that applies to photobook too. I am looking at fotohub now, I would prefer stitch bind, after all, it's a wedding book, I wouldn't want the pages to fall...

wow.. what have I missed? Good to know there are more options available. Thanks, deerixp, for the kind words in the comment. (^_^) I agree that making the travel book (as a trial and warmup) before you make your wedding book. My 2nd book is better than the first. heee....
