Cute Guestbook Alternatives

We are all about helping our clients come up with fun & creative ways to make their wedding day unique to them♥ Today’s blog is focused on our TOP 5 Favorite Guestbook Alternatives….

OLD GUITAR

Are you and your fiancé huge music fans? Check out this adorable idea to have your guests sign and old guitar! Not only does this make a fun way to remember who was with you on the day of your wedding, but it makes for a super cool piece of wall art ♪♫

PUZZLE OF LOVE

Here’s another one of our favorite ideas! You can take one of our engagement photos, and have it turned into a jig-saw-puzzle… then have your guests sign the back of the pieces with little love notes and bits of advice! This is a sweet keepsake that you two can pull out, and put together when the Winter months have you held up inside and looking for activities.

Love around the world

This is such an awesome idea! Have a lot of guests from out of town? Or friends you did a lot of traveling with? Having a “Guestbook Globe” allows loved ones to leave special notes one certain geographic areas. Even if most of your guests live in the same town, this glob is a unique piece of art to display on your favorite end table or bookcase!

Jot it down on jenga

Here’s another fun game that also doubles as a guest book…. JENGA! Have a basket set out with wooden Jenga pieces and permanent markers next to a sign for guests to leave a note. You’ll get to reminisce found memories of your wedding day while you play the game later in life.

snuggle up in sentiment

Whether you choose to have your guests sign individual patches of cloth to be stitched together later, or have them sign directly onto a finished quilt, this guest book alternative is a cozy way to be surrounded by loving memories, cherished for a lifetime♥

Linens: Think Outside The Solids

Wedding Vendor Spotlight

When it comes to planning out your wedding decor, going bold & beautiful with your linens is a BIG way to make your venue POP with color & character! We LOVE the beautiful patterns and textures Weinhardt Party Rentals offers in their linen department.

According to Brides.com, “If you think about the design of your wedding reception, what’s the biggest surface area you have to play with?” asks Sarah Granger-Twomey of La Tavola Fine Linen. The answer? “The tables, of course! And tables are also the place where your guests will spend the most time at once, so choosing the right linens is actually pretty crucial.” Think about it: You’ve got a captive audience through dinner, so it’s your chance to really make a statement. “With so many moving parts in your wedding, all the details become a great opportunity to show your personality as a couple throughout the night,” says Zaira Vallejo of Nüage Designs

“Those details are what make your design a full experience, one that your guests will talk about long after the night has ended.” Adds Rebecca O’Dea of BBJ Linen, “The napkins, tablecloth, and runner are additions that can showcase your creativity. You can mix and match colors and fabrics to create a customized look.”
