Giving Away Wedding Guest Books

By Danny Ricks

Wedding guest books are one of the most important features in a wedding. A wedding guest book helps newly married couples to reminisce those who attended their memorable day. This helps them also to make thank you cards or to start their newly organized address book. In this special day, you would want your guest book to be something special as well.

Wedding guest book is one of the most important things during the wedding. First, it provides a list of those people who spent their time with them. With the list, you can always prepare a thank you card for them. Second, it serves the purpose of refreshing your contacts. Your friends or relatives may have changed their numbers and addresses. You may also meet new faces - your in-laws, your spouse's friends that you might want to add in your contacts. And lastly, it holds the messages and wishes of those who love you and support you for this major decision in your life.

Have Pictures on It. Pictures are very essential in capturing the moments during the wedding. You can assign one to take Polaroid shots of the guests then incorporate it to the guest book before they sign. As you read your wedding guest book for the years to come, you will not only remember their names, but their faces as well.

Make it Extraordinary. Aside from having your guests to sign their names on the guest book, you can request for something special for them to share, such as recipes, personalized letters, photographs or other memorabilia. You can inform them a few weeks before the special day. In doing so, your guest book will not be just a piece of notebook with written names on it. It is a book filled with much personality, thoughts and fun - a book worth keeping.

You can also personalize your guest book by asking some of your friends and family members to share something that can be put on your guest book. These can be recipes, a composition, and stories in the past or even letters. They may even include pictures of you when you are still single or bonding times with them. It will surely be a book that is full of thoughts, fun and love from those people who care for you.

The above suggestions will really work great in an unlined book. They can freely express their feelings and mood in a blank paper. People can doodle, write very small, or write with very large fonts, write with short messages or long ones - they are free to do what they want. They will have a fun moment leaving their messages for you.

Pages with lines are best if you want to keep the formality and simplicity of your guest book. Having guided lines, writing straight would not be a problem. You can avoid messy and unattractive pages and keep them neat and in order.

You can definitely do anything with your guest book. Be it a scrap book, a jar of papers, a ceramic plate - it does not matter. There are no rules and definitely no limits. Keep in mind its purpose. It is a treasure. All you need is some creativity to make your wedding guest books worth keeping. - 29956
