Guest Book Inspiration

Guest books are a long-standing tradition at weddings. They are meant to be a way for friends and family to give advice and best wishes to the newlyweds, and they are something the couple can keep in order to look back on their special day. However, in this day and age, everyone is looking for a way to make their wedding day more unique, and your guest book is one small way you can do so. Here are five fun alternatives to the traditional wedding guest book!

 

1. Vinyl Record Guest Book 
​Recently at Judson Mill, one of our amazing couples, Ashton and Stevie, used a vinyl record as their guestbook. The record featured a photo of the couple in the center, and guests used metallic markers to write best wishes to the newlyweds. We loved this idea and just had to share!  

2. Polaroid Pictures Guest Book
A scrapbook-style guest book, using Polaroids from the reception, is a fun twist on the classic guest book. Friends and family can snap a quick photo together and then write a sweet note to the happy couple!

3. Spotify-Inspired Acrylic Guest Book
​Do you and your partner have a song that is near and dear to your hearts? If so, an acrylic Spotify-inspired guest book might be the thing for you! Replace the album cover with a fun engagement photo, and you have the perfect keepsake for all of your guests to sign!

5. Typewriter Guest Book
​If the aesthetic for your wedding is a bit more vintage-inspired, we suggest letting your guests type up their best wishes and memories on a typewriter. This idea is especially perfect for more intimate weddings, where all the guests know the couple really well.
