Hi everyone! I really love the idea of having a polaroid guest book but I've heard from some people that it didn't really work out that well... does anyone have any suggestions how they made it work (or where they went to a wedding where it worked)?

I like the idea of having someone (like an attendant) take pictures for each couple and use it as a seating chart- so people took the picture and replaced their number with the photo. How would this work for single folks? Will it take too much time for people to sign a note into the book once they do that?

    What if you have them snap a photo and put it in a bowl and then also have them sign a small advice and wishes for the Mr. and Mrs. card and put it in a basket. Then the married couple can later match the photos with the cards and assemble the photo guestbook themselves as they read and look at the photos.
