Hi ladies,
This is my first time posting. My fiancé and I are getting married September 15th and I’m debating on what to do for a guestbook. What have you all done? I’m looking for ideas! Thanks in advance!!

    We are doing two! One will be a Shutterfly photo book with all of our engagement pics, as well as some with our kids-with plenty of space for people to write messages and advice.

    And the other one is going to be this sign I found on Etsy. We will have metallic pens for people to sign their names and then we will display it in our home! Smiley smile

    We are going to buy a plain page scrapbook from Etsy and have people take pictures with a Polaroid and put it in, and we will have them sign next to/under it!

    Something similar to this. My FH is an artist so he made one for us (somehow no pic of it on my phone). We're framing it without the glass for guests to sign.

    We got a magnum wine bottle for dipped in gold and people signed it in Black sharpie. I decorated the neck a little. It looks awesome!

    Were doing one of These. Kind of pricey for ours that will come with 100 hearts for guests it was $95. But each guest signs a heart and places it in the slot in top of the frame!

    My fiancé and I are planning to create a Jenga set for the guest book. Guests will write notes on the blocks.

    We did a wooden pallet painted white with a heart and our names and the date in our wedding colors. Hubby says this is what he will grab first if there’s a fire in our apartment!

    Our wedding is a very subtle sleeping beauty theme, the only things that are obvious are the guest book/guest book table and the cake topper.

    So, I found this super cute guest book on etsy and it's what we're using. We were going to do a large wood slice and have people sign that originally though!

    We are doing a signing quilt! Each guest will sign a square, then my mom will sew all of the squares together and give it to us for our one month anniversary.

    We are planning on picking out our 4 favorite engagement shots (one in each outfit) and making them into a collage that we will get printed on canvas with a large white border for people to sign in with special art markers.

    We're doing a polaroid guest book. We bought a beautiful custom book off Etsy to have people put their pictures in and sign the book. It's definitely not the cheap route but I will enjoy looking back on it much more than having a book with signatures in it. We go the polaroid camera, film, washi tape (to adhere the photos to the book), markers, sign for the guest book table, and the actual book all for around $150.
