A Wedding Album with a Difference - part 2 of 1 2

Published 01/10/2008

They needed, for example to find somebody to produce pieces of armour for Darren to wear as well as the many costumes that the guests were obliged to wear! During their travels, they came across Phil Bartlett of Stagman Creations who amongst many other things is a skilled artist in working with leather. For over three years, Phil worked during spare time to produce the most stunning designs in the style of the Lord of the Rings in hide leather that were eventually to become the spine and covers for Darren and Christothea's wedding album.

Mario Acerboni himself took personal charge of producing the album assisted by his daughter Roberta as you can see from this series of images. Firstly, we see Mario in his workshop beginning work on a piece of leather that was to become one of the covers. Many of the machines in the Acerboni factory are personally built or adapted by Mario to conform to his exact requirements. Indeed, he has his own engineering workshop within the factory where he spends many hours perfecting his machines and developing new products and techniques.

Although Digital Storybook albums are very popular at the moment and are also offered by Acerboni, a large proportion also prefer the traditional style of a handassembled album and with a Mario Acerboni Album they know that it will stand the test of time.

The album created was A3 upright format with 50 leaves giving 100 sides of images in order to fit in all of Darren and Christothea's wedding photographs.

Never one to stand idle, Mario Acerboni has recently invented the world's first Slide and Fold album.

This album was designed for those clients who require a single cross- centre panoramic image or multiple montage style of a digital storybook but with the card border styling and advantages offered by a traditional slip in album. Called Digital AMA, these albums are available in various cover designs and a variety of sizes from 20x30 cm up to 60 x40 cm. The traditional border edge protects the image and the slip-in leaf design allows replacement of an image should it ever become damaged.

Of course Mario Acerboni continue to be an innovator of image presentation products that include a diverse range of covers with hand painted designs by artists such as Giuseppe Pacini and Roberta Acerboni. Giuseppe Pacini produces designs for many of Mario Acerboni covers and has done design work for Gianni Versace clothing and Gucci! What draws people to the Mario Acerboni range is that they never cease to improve their products and invent new ones. The albums shown here are from the 2008 Turandot range.

Mario Acerboni is also able to boast that virtually any of their covers can be made into a Digital Storybook as well as all other formats. Many designs are available in a huge variety of materials and colours. There are three main album size formats and three mini-digital album sizes to choose from. It is possible to choose from a variety of different finishes including matt, sparkle and leather laminates, metallic and lustre papers, matching cases, and from six to 50 open leaves. With a 22 to 29 day turnaround on such bespoke products, Mario Acerboni is competitive on delivery time as well as price.
