In the Details: the Guest Book

The Guest Book is one detail that is sometimes left to the last minute or is completely forgotten. While all Brides and Grooms make the effort to talk to every guest, sometimes a few guest get missed. That's where the guest book comes in.

Of course you can go with a traditional book, engraved with a monogram...



or you can get creative and create a fun way to have guest share their thoughts for this special day.

A fun and unexpected idea is to include a typewriter and have guest type out their messages of congratulations.


Incorporate a book from your favorite artist like this wedding where the Bride and Groom used a book featuring work from Charley Harper as their guest book.


at the end of the wedding you'll have a special book for your coffee table that includes well wishes from guest.

You could also incorporate engagement photos and other pictures into a custom book created by Good Stock that can also serve as a lovely guest book and keepsake.





Why not help your guest out with some fun conversation starters or well wishes for your guest with fun interactive tables.









One detail that is always fun is having guest take photos of themselves and leave you a message.







Incorporate your guest book into your wedding decor by creating a guest book like this where guest can hang their messages from branches.


or include individual books on each reception table.


Hopefully these ideas will give you inspiration for your own guest book and creating a unique way for guest to share their congratulations.
