We just got our deluxe book in the mail. OMG....just AMAZING. WAY beyond what I had thought it would be and I had really high expectations for the deluxe.
As an aside- we have ordered 2 classic books before and we just LOVED them. The deluxe just puts them to shame though and I am so shocked that that's the case b/c the classic books are outstanding!
First off- it's HUGE. Secondly, the jacket, the entire book looks absolutely professional. No beading, no pixelation on anything! Looks like a true REAL book!
I opened the book and was trying to go to page 2, so I used my fingers to "separate the pages" like I always do- the only "problem" was that the page was SO THICK that I was only holding onto 1 PAGE! I was shocked at the quality of the paper.
I don't know what they use now for the classic books, ours are from summer 2006, and the grade of paper has got to be like twice as thick for the deluxe vs. classic and I thought the classic pages were hefty!
To be fair, we LOVED our classic book and I would recommend them to anybody but WOW, our deluxe is just so great I can't even put it into words.
I can't wait to show friends and family! People ask a lot about whether the books are "good enough" for actual wedding albums. The answer is YES, they are. If what you want is a book with photos in it, not an album but an actual true book- this is your product!!
I can't imagine a better album for our wedding. I've seen lots of wedding albums and we just didn't want those "thick cardboard" pages, the old fashioned style albums. We wanted something "hip and new" something "different" than our parents and grandparents had- and this is IT :)
