We did the acrylic cover and lay flat pages. Seriously, pictures do not do it justice. It is stunning and the quality is top notch. We had a lot of extra pages because I like a blank intro page to each section - Getting Ready, The Ceremony, The Reception. I waited for a free extra pages sale with 40% off only to find out that the free pages offer does not apply to lay flat pages. But Shutterfly's customer service is pretty good and they made a one-time exception for us so we got our extra pages for free!
Then we got the album and I was so disappointed that the binding was black when we ordered blue to match our wedding colors. I say I because my husband didn't care either way lol. I contacted them and they offered to give us a credit to reorder it. We didn't know what we'd do with two albums so we asked for a discount instead and they gave us 25% off, so another $140 saved! (I did have to send them a picture to prove the binding was black.)
So... If you're wondering what site to use to put together your album, I highly recommend Shutterfly.
