Get Attention With These Unique Guest Book Ideas
Guest books are no longer the plain Jane’s they used to be. In the old days, these books had little to no decoration - just a plain simple book with the words "Guestbook" written on the cover (and possibly with last names) in the bride's and groom's selected fonts. Then there would be a single soul on guestbook duty going around making sure that every single person signed...😮 Guests would sign if they felt compelled by guilt to do so, or if they were cornered by the person designated to make sure everyone signed. It felt like drudgery to have to stop by the table and sign your name.
However, this doesn’t have to be. If everything about your wedding is exciting, vibrant, and full of energy then your guest books should reflect the same feeling. With these great ideas, there is no need for a guestbook assignment.😯😉
