    From Katie: A friend introduced me to these Etsy wonders, which I think are just ingenious. Have you ever seen anything so creative? What a wonderful guest book idea! Not only would this be fun and interactive for your guests, but would serve as a totally unique keepsake and pretty décor for any newlywed abode. The amazingly talented artists at Bleu de Toi (a husband and wife – love that) can customize the tree style, font and ink choices to match your theme and color palette. I’d love to hear your opinion on this creative twist to the classic wedding guest book. Thoughts? Images from Bl...

    I've been researching Guest Book ideas for a client and have quite a list of ideas to share.A few tips: make sure that you have a Guest Book attendant to help guests sign and keep the line moving. I've found if guests do not sign it when they arrive at the wedding, they won't sign it unless someone specifically takes it around to tables during dinner and asks them to. Guests don't like that. I know from experience. If budget permits, try to have more than one to keep the line moving.Wine Bottle Guest BookIn order to facilitate this idea, you will need a few bottles of wine as they are not ver...

    We love this and found it over at, Groom Sold Separately (GSS) It’s a Sign-In Tree!  You could paint a tree yourself, or have a friend do it, or have a print of a tree that you like put on a canvas.  Pick out stamp pads that coordinate with your wedding colors and have your guests put their thumbprint as a leaf on the tree, along with their signature. ...

    Instead of a traditional guestbook, try this fun and innovative idea from Project Wedding. For this story line 'guestbook' all you need is some card stock cut into the size of a postcard, some colorful markers-maybe in the colors of your wedding, a bowl of clothespins and a short set of instructions.Have your guests write out a favorite memory of you, your spouse or both! Let the laughing, sharing, and story-telling begin! These are great hung up on string for an indoor or outdoor wedding. Have fun!...

    For the end of our guestbook week, I wanted to share my favorite idea that I have come across. It is so intimate and creative and something you can really keep forever to look back on! And my favorite guestbook idea is... Polaroids!! I absolutely adore the idea of the guests taking a picture of themselves and leaving a little note by it in a book. This creates added fun for your guests and for you when you get to read it! You can do it a couple of different ways. You can set up a table with polaroid cameras for the guests to use and have a book preset with places for the pictures and a space...

    I don't know why this is, but I don't think I've ever posted about guestbooks in all 772 posts I've written on this blog. Huh! These caught my eye because of the gorgeous patterns and affordable prices. They can also be customized to fit your event, size preference and pattern choice. I guess there's a first time for everything! Check out Enji Beck for the deets....

  • I wrote previously in G Is For Guestbook entry (have you read it yet? brush up because the next round of ABCs is coming soon!) and That Painted Guestbook entry about the myriad of options available to collect well wishes from your loved ones. Cathrin of Cathrin D’Entremont Weddings emailed me some lovely new ideas which I hadn’t come across. Have your guests sign rocks or stones, these could be placed in your garden or a vase or pot after the wedding. Would be a great choice for a rustic feel wedding Photo by Ira Lippke Studios I love this one, guests used an ink pad, their fingers and ...

    (Image via Myownlabels)Miss Sunbeam from Weddingbee has an unique guestbook idea-have guests sign a 1.5 Liter bottle of wine! They're planning on having guests sign it at their wedding and then opening it for their anniversary.While the Sunbeams are planning on using this for their wedding guestbook, we think it's a great idea for a bridal shower (or bachelorette party) guestbook. Not only is it creative and different, but its also practical-the bride gets a great bottle of wine to drink. This would be a great way to complement a wine tasting, a stock the bar shower, or any shower for the gal...
