Welcome Sign/guestbook

Imani, on June 15, 2022 at 9:07 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 39
I found this on Etsy as an alternative guestbook. I think it’s great because it can be used as the welcome sign for the ceremony & the guestbook for the reception.
I didn’t want to spend $99 on this, so I decided to DYI my own using Canva. Let me know how I did. (We’re also changing the photos). Should I try to see if I can find the cursive font or does it look fine? Honest thoughts.Welcome Sign/guestbook 1

    Hey girl it looks great you and Brittany look so nice in your pictures we still dont have any formal pictures too much just random. So with the black background use a white pen or white color pencil so you can see the names. Yiu done a great job 👍🏽.But I do still want the first picture you have as they come inside it will be on there left so they can sign and take there seats.

    Thank you! We actually took these at an event we went to. Still waiting on my SIL to take our engagement photos. Yep! We’ll have it out when they come in for the ceremony on the easel and while everyone is enjoying the ceremony the coordinator will put it on the table for them to sign before the reception, get their escort cards and head to the table.


    I just thought this would be easier than having a welcome sign & getting a alternative guestbook.

    Did you ever try to use the seating chart tool on here? I used it and it was helpful. I actually did the name cards yesterday. I used the Avery template - it took me 2 hours! My OCD got the best of me lol


    & Grl yes, they just got back from California yesterday. This Sunday they’re hosting a Juneteenth celebration and next week my mom is being ordained. At this point I just want to say forget the engagement photos, but I really do want to take some. So we will see what happens. I’ll see if she’s free next Saturday. I just wanted to give her some time to settle in from their trip.

    Imani - I love the idea and the display is amazing! I love how the red pops against the black background - I think it’s great when you can have dual purpose for something and this works perfectly! I am trying to do the escort cards now too. I used the Avery template but I am not very tech savvy or fine artsy, haha… how did they come out? I was afraid the paper was too flimsy. Did you think that at all or am I overthinking everything? Haha

    That’s great to know! I was looking at the 5302, small tents. Let me know how the 5011 work - I will need to look into that today. Are they printing them for you or are you printing at home? Thanks!!
