Guest Book Ideas

Part of what makes a wedding so special are the people that are there to celebrate. As we all know, the day can get overwhelming and the couple may not have time to talk to all of the guests in attendance. A guest book is a great way for couples to look back on the people that helped celebrate their big day. Finding a guestbook that is significant to you and your guests is key.  

Do you want a guestbook that means something to you? Let us help you decide the best guestbook for your wedding style. The first thing to consider is the theme and overall aesthetic of your wedding. Do you want to keep it traditional or go outside the box? If you’re wanting to stick with the basics, or something to keep around the house, we have all of the answers!  

Go for the simple guestbook – the go to. No matter the theme of your wedding, a simple guestbook is appropriate. The outside can be customized with a picture, initials, or match the color scheme of the day.  

If you’re having a destination wedding or love to travel with your partner, a mailbox with various postcards of places you’ve been or would like to one day go is a unique way for your guests to write a note!

Having a black-tie affair? A vintage telephone is the way to go! Pick up the phone and leave a message for the lovely couple that they can play back and listen to for years to come. How cute would that phone look sitting on an entry-way table?

A giant Jenga board is one of our favorite trends! Have your guests sign pieces of the game, and invite people over to play once you’re settled in after the wedding.

Couples often struggle finding a guestbook that they can put to use after the wedding is over. A coffee table book that you already have on hand is the perfect alternative for this! Afterwards, the book can go right back to that coffee table.

If you’re wanting something to hang in your house, frame a picture and leave a border large enough for guests to sign. Choose an engagement photo for your guests to admire while signing a sweet note!

Polaroid pictures seem to be a hit! This will give you something to look back on while waiting for your professional photo gallery! Grab a blank book for guests to adhere their favorite picture from the night. Make sure to provide extra film for your guests to take home a duplicate!

Music lovers? Bring your record player and have a couple of blank records for the guests to sign. You can even set out a handful of your favorite vinyl from records you have around the house!

If you’re full of adventure, have guests pinpoint where you should go when you have the chance! Find a customized globe where the guests are able to sign their name on their best destination recommendation.

What’s better than a love note? Bring a vintage typewriter for the guests to type out a sweet note that you can keep forever. Ask the guests to write their favorite memory or words of encouragement!

Whether you are wanting to keep it pretty simple or go over the top – choose a guestbook that is special to you! This will be around for years to come and an easy way to look back on who celebrated you on your big day!
