We want your experience with us to be as pleasant and satisfying as possible. The information below should answer many questions that might occur to you as you begin to enjoy and show your CD previews to others.

1. How should we take orders from others?
Each person ordering should use a separate order form. The order forms will be returned with your finished order. You can print additional copies from your CD-ROM or complete the orders in Excel.

To avoid errors and extra costs, we suggest you collect from each person ordering before you return your orders to us. Back to top
 
2. When is our order due?
Your order is due by the date shown on the receipt you received when you got your CD-ROM, generally four months after your event date. Please be aware that:
  • Your prices and terms are guaranteed only to that date.
  • Your CD will no longer play after your due date, and we will charge for to extend the expiration date. Back to top
     
3. What will happen when we meet to place our order?
Please call for definite appointment to place your order. Before arriving for your appointment, be sure you have completed the Order Summary Sheet. We will use the count from this sheet to establish a preliminary invoice at our meeting. Final billing will, of course, be based upon our count of the actual orders written in the preview albums.

This meeting is the time to choose your album, parent albums, etc. and determine if you wish to purchase your high resolution images. If you have any questions, this will be the time to ask; once your order is submitted, it cannot be changed. Back to top
 
4. How much will our album cost?
If you contracted for one of our packages, the cost of your album is included.
 
For Flexible Coverage, your album is sold separately from your photographs. The cost depends on the type of album you choose and the size necessary to hold the assortment of photographs you have selected. Our albums can accommodate virtually any combination of 8x10, 5x7 and 3½x5 photographs you desire. Large albums start at about 45% of the cost of the photographs to be mounted. Included in the price is our thoughtfully and artistically sequencing and mounting your photographs.

5. Can (should) we get albums for our parents?
Quality photographs should be enhanced and protected by quality albums. In some cases, the bride and groom purchase their parents’ albums; in others the parents themselves buy them. Parents are welcome to attend the order meeting to select albums or they may visit us on their own. Whatever your own family traditions are, it seems shameful to us to see thousands of dollars being spent for weddings and hundreds more on photographs - only to have them put away in a drawer or mounted in a “cheap” album to be damaged and forgotten.

6. How long will it take to fill our order?
Most orders take from ten to twelve weeks from the time they are submitted to complete. We guarantee completion before Christmas for standard orders submitted to us before October 1. Back to top
 
7. Do you sort and package orders separately for each person?
We will be happy to sort and package your order. For us to provide this service without extra charge:
  • Each person ordering must use a different order sheet filled out correctly.  View Ordering Instructions
  • You must complete the Order Summary Sheet. Print Order Summary Sheet
