Just an idea for everyone, I didn't want to do a guest book, and I wanted to think of something different so we decided to go with postcards. There is going to be a mailbox on the table and a basket of postcards and a small note asking guests to fill out the postcard with a wedding wish for the bride and groom. Once we leave for our honeymoon one of my bridesmaids will drop them off in the mail, so when we get back we'll come home to a mailbox of good wishes.I thought it was a cute idea. We are having a "love" themed wedding and someone found these love/victorian postcards at the dollar store they are great! The postcards will be addressed to us but the stamps won't be put on till they get mailed. Just a little idea for someone that wanted to do something different!
Good luck to all! wedding is April 3, 2004 anyone else out ther getting married on that day?
Hi Diane,
Your idea sounds cute. I am getting married on June 26, 2004. We are having a very small wedding, and instead of a guest book I made a Blessing Bool out of a journal. I have put a page in asking everyone to leave a special messang or blessing for us. I think it wlil work out.
Good luck,
Sandie
My friend had a large vase at the " sign in " tableThat was decorated and had a sticker that said " Wedding Wishes" with her name/ date. She also had cute little cards made with her name / date and wwere decorated. The idea was the same as yours; for the guests to writ ewedding wishes. In this case they dropped the card in the vase.
Have a great day !
I'm a wedding photographer - one of the things I've done to give couples a very unique keepsake for their wedding day is to get a 16x20 mat (for framing) with an 8x10 photo cut out. Then, the glass is removed for the cermony and guests sign in their well wishes around their picture. Its a very nice keepsake. After the wedding - just put the glass on and put it on a wall (your own personal wall art!) I usually include it with a couples engagement photo.
We had talked about this as well. What we decided on was I Bought 2 Scrapbooking Books At Hobby Lobby & decorated them to sit out on the Table where they come in & leave us a Wish, Blessing or a Memory.
My Father in-Law will be taking picturesof the Guests so we'll have a picture of them to put with their Message on our Special Day.
