Shutterfly alternative
A wedding memory book the whole wedding party can fill, not just one designer
Shutterfly is one of the best known photo book printers, with a dedicated Bridal Memory Book for the engagement, showers, and the wedding day itself. It is built for one person to design alone, uploading their own photos into a layout. Vivlore takes a different approach, a shared online memory book that guests, family, and the wedding party can all add photos and stories to together, then print as a hardback.

What Shutterfly does well
Shutterfly has printed photo books for more than two decades and offers real range, from budget softcovers to premium leather layflat albums, plus a free 24-hour designer service for anyone who would rather not lay out every page themselves. For someone designing solo from their own photo library, it is a proven, reliable choice.
Where Vivlore goes further
- ✓Built together, not alone. Shutterfly's books are designed by one person, uploading their own photos. Vivlore lets guests, parents, and the wedding party add their own photos and memories to the same book.
- ✓Free to create and share. Start a wedding memory book without a credit card and share it with a link the same day. You only pay if you want a printed hardback.
- ✓More than one wedding book. Shutterfly's Bridal Memory Book covers the engagement, bridal shower, and wedding day. Vivlore covers the same moments, plus baby, life story, and travel books for whatever comes next.
- ✓One place, many contributors. A Shutterfly album is a single design project. A Vivlore memory book stays open online, so photos and messages from guests can keep arriving long after the big day.
