Guest Book Alternatives
It is a sad fact that most wedding guest books end up shoved into
closets, resigned to collecting dust for the rest of their days. Why
not spice up your wedding with something different, something you’ll
actually want to look at again after the wedding? With many modern
guest book alternatives available, there’s no reason your guestbook has
to be just a place where guests can write their name and address.
There
are many alternative options for trendy guest books. Some clever
choices available include signature mat frames, instant photo guest
books, signature platters, and wedding wishes guest books. All of these
provide unique ways for your guests to provide their own personal
touch, and are keepsakes that you can enjoy for years to come.
Signature
mat frames are plain photo mats that can contain either an engagement
or wedding photo, which guests can sign their names and messages
around. Later these can be hung on a wall or over a mantel, a great
reminder of your special day and everyone who shared in it.
Instant
photo guest books are another great way to capture the memories of your
wedding day. Each page holds an instant photo, so that you’ll never
forget who was there-or what they looked like! The remainder of the
page is free for each guest to write their own personal message to you,
something that you’ll be able to keep forever. Just think of how fun it
would be for your guests to take each other’s pictures with a Polaroid
camera, and they can write their message while it’s developing!
Another
crafty guest book alternative is the signature platter. Guests can sign
a porcelain platter, which you can then keep and use for years after
the wedding.
Wedding wishes guest books are also a growing trend.
These guest books feature small envelopes and note cards for guests to
write their congratulations, advice, and stories. This guest book is
something you’ll want to get out and read again and again.
No
matter which type of guest book you choose, it should reflect your
style and personality. These alternative guest books are keepsakes that
are well worth keeping out of the closet.
