Recently all the blogs that I’ve been reading have shown some really unique ways couples are personalizing their guestbook at their wedding. I think very few people are sticking to the traditional “sign your name on a line” guestbook and using this wedding tradition as another way to add their personal flair to the details of the day.
One of my favorite stories was how the bride and her sister painted a tree on a large canvas. The couple had all of their guests sign the leaves of the tree and then the bride and groom signed the “carved” heart on the trunk during their ceremony as their version of the unity candle. Now they have a really cool piece of art hanging on their wall with a ton of meaning.
So I got to thinking about Dove and the guestbooks that we offer our brides that can be a fun alternative to the traditional books.
If you do an engagement session with Dove, one of the fun things you can do with your pictures is use them in your guestbook. We have two types of books- a graphic designed guestbook and a matted design. It’s a fun way for your guests to leave you sweet notes while also getting to see a sample of your engagement photos. Both these designs are great examples of something different that you can do with your engagement photos and guestbook.
Below are some examples of different and fun “guestbooks” from different Dove brides.
This is an example of our matted guest book we offer.
No matter what you decide to do for your guestbook, whether a photo booth, graphic or matted guestbook, signing a large picture, guitar, or painting, etc…, make it your own and something that you are going to treasure for years to come.
Have a great weekend!
