Guest Book Ideas

The Tradition Guest Book

Everyone seems to be moving away from having the little guest sign in book, filled with pages and lines for each guest to write their names on. To me these books, while better than nothing, are just something that will get thrown in a drawer and never looked at once the wedding is over.

The Sign In Mat

Today’s bride is much more likely to have a sign in mat with her engagement picture in the center. Instead of going in a drawer, it is hung on the wall after the wedding, to admire again and again.

Another popular idea is the sign in picture book made with your engagement pictures or growing up pictures on each page, along with plenty of blank white space for guests to sign on. These books can easily be put together online or most photographers offer them.

The Sign In Picture Book

A great new idea that I ran across recently, is to take all those keepsakes you’ve been saving since your first date with Mr. Right out of the box, photograph them and use those pictures in your picture sign in book. How cute to have the concert ticket stubs of the great concert you went to or the movie stubs from your first date. Maybe a picture of that perfect birthday card he sent you or you sent him. Everything that represents your time together, collected and recorded in one book. Then each page signed by all the people who came to share that love at your wedding day. What could be more perfect.

Such a great idea for an alternative guestbook. You can also use ceramic platters that guests sign with a special pen. It can then be kept as a lovely keepsake of the wedding.
