Polaroid set up

Janae, on October 1, 2021 at 8:06 PM Posted in Planning 0 4
This is for brides that did a Polaroid guest book. What was your set up, post pics if possible. What kind of photo albums did you use. Did guest actually write a message and take photos. Any regrets or suggestions.?

    We are doing a photo guest book! Here is the sign we bought:

    We're also going to have baskets (each labeled) for new packages of film, and instructions for how to reload the film. I'm also going to ask either our ushers or our day of coordinator to occasionally check in on it and swap out the film if necessary. We bought a regular guest book and plan on supplying tape/glue/sharpies for everyone to use to write their messages and secure the photos in the book.

    Great question. Here are a few photos of ours. The first photo was our setup. We used a photo album we got from Etsy with black pages and gold sharpies to sign. We were so happy our guests actually used the Polaroid and signed!! I would highly recommend encouraging guests to do this during cocktail hour.

    **Beware we bought 100 sheets of film and expected to have leftovers to use on our honeymoon. Our guests loved it so much they used all of the film!! Many guests ended up taking photos home as their own memory. Though I was disappointed we did not have any extra film, I am glad our guests liked using the camera so much and had a souvenir to take with them.
