Guest books are a great way to capture the memories of your wedding; to remember all the family and friends who have joined you on such an extraordinary and memorable dayHere are a few simple ideas to create a guest book that captures your special day.
The first one I like to call “The Letter Book.” First decorate a simple bound white journal. Inside glue mini envelopes to each page. Then cut out little rectangular cards that will fit inside the envelopes. The guest will write a message on the card and place it in an envelope and write their name on the cover. There you have it!
The next idea is great to capture the moment...literally. Get a polaroid, a sharpie, an empty picture frame (without the glass), ribbon, and clothespins. After the glass has been removed from the frame glue the ribbon to both sides of the frame. At the wedding have a polaroid camera available to take silly photos, the guest can then write a message on the bottom of the picture and pin it to the ribbon with a cloth pins. This guest book is perfect for creating a memento that you can take home a hang up to savor the moment!
Another unique idea is a puzzle. This symbolic guest book is very simple. Buy a plain wood puzzle and a sharpie. At your wedding write a sign that guides your guest, something like “welcome please sign a piece to our puzzle,” then have them place it in a jar. Years from the wedding you can do the puzzle and remember all the great things people had to say!
