Creative Guest Book Ideas

I've heard of people using a bible to have people highlight their favorite bible verses and sign in there. I don't know how you feel about people writing in books if you're a librarian haha BUT if your FH proposed LOTR style, you could have a copy of LOTR and have everyone sign in the margins or in their favorite chapters if they've read the book and that way if you choose to read it (or read it again?) you'll think about your wedding day. And I think that'd be something cool to pass down if you choose to have kids. Or you could choose a different book that you guys both like or means something to you. Even though it will sit on a shelf, it's definitely something cool that will last forever and you might not always want something hanging on your wall that has a bunch of signatures on it.

Ohhh I like this one a lot

I am looking at this one. $5 on groupon right now

guestbook

My best friend got a canvas of a peacock (her wedding theme) and each feather on its tail has space for a thumb print and is having her guests stamp their thumb instead of using a traditional guestbook. Like you, she wanted something to hang on her wall afterwards.

Although if we do a 90s theme I like this one too, but it isn't very wedding

90s guestbook

Our flowers are sunflowers and roses. I'll be painting this, and then having the guests sign it in a black paint marker!

FH is a big hunter, and I thought this deer canvas was so cute! We’re getting a family friend to paint it for us, and all the guests will leave their thumbprint on the antlers. We’re planning on having 150-175 people at the wedding so I’m not sure how we’ll fit all the thumbprints on here, but we’ll probably add more antlers or something.

I went to Zazzle.com and created a custom blank puzzle that our guests can sign! I think it was around $12 and then shipping brought it up to $18. It just came in the mail and looks awesome! We plan on putting it together and taping the back of it for our wedding day and then laying out a few sharpies for our guests. Only thing I'm worried about is putting a blank puzzle together lol

Puzzle

View Quoted Comment Love the puzzle tree idea!

Etsy has amazing ideas for wall art. We opted for the wooden signature board and are putting our picture in it.

View Quoted Comment Ooh! I love this one! FH is always pointing out constellations and I'm like yeah! I totally see it! 😬😬😬🤩🤩🤩 Sometimes I really do though, so it's only a little fib...

We painted a canvas, my sister will add our names and dates. Our guests will sign in gold marker

View Quoted Comment I’m doing the letter! I actually bought the 2 foot letter from ac Moore with a coupon, then got a sample can of stain from Home Depot. It only cost me $15 so far. I have a friend with a circuit who is cutting my wedding date in white vinyl to put on the bottom. It’s coming out perfectly!

Well originally our plan was to get a nice wood slab (side table side) and have people sign it and bring it to my job and have them finish it and put legs on it so we can have a side table. My job is selling wood (live edge slabs, tables, exotic hardwood for decks and docks and siding and what not). BUT this is kind of out of our budget right now so I started looking at a BIG tree picture and people put a finger print on the branches and then sign their names and I have also seen the idea of the Polaroid pictures I really want to do. You put out the name placements on like close pins but before they can take their seats they have to replace the card with a Polaroid picture. I think this would be super cool and kind of nostalgic!

Something like this- then put them in a book down the road.

View Quoted Comment Thank you! Yes I did get it on etsy. I just sent in one of our engagement pictures. The store is called Thestoryofthefall

View Quoted Comment Lol I have the same problem

Here is our guestbook. We bought gold and bronze sharpies for everyone to use to sign their name. We bought it during a sale at Hobby Lobby for I think $12.

View Quoted Comment This is awesome! We are also UFC fans. My husband proposed last year when we went to Chicago to watch fights. We didn’t really do anything fight related for our wedding, but we did take some of our engagement pics with our boxing gloves. I honestly liked them more than the traditional pics.
