Scrapbook/Guest book

I decided that I didn't want to do a traditional guest book. I love scrapbooking, so I though it would be cool to make the guest book a scrapbook that we could have after the wedding for all the well wishes. Guests will leave their notes on little cards that will be added to the scrapbook after the wedding when we get the pics back from our photographer. That way, we'll have a nice scrapbook and a way to remember what our guests said as opposed to just signatures.

I thought at first that we would have our hostesses take pictures of the guests so we would have pics of everyone to put by their well-wishes...but that may prove to be too much of a hassle in the end. The photographer pics will suffice...

I bought the scrapbook and damask paper from Michael's. I'm thinking I may get some letters to add "Guest book" or "Well Wishes" to the front? Opinions??? I'll also reprint the first page on nice paper so the edges won't be all uneven from my cutting...lol. What are your guest book ideas?!?

This is a super cute idea! I love it! Makes me want to do it (: I also love to scrapbook and I never thought of this before! It will deff. make a memorable guest book. I think you should put "Guest Book" on the front

I did this too! I decided that on each page, there will be a different picture of us (with blank space left around the picture) We are going to have a bucket full of sharpies and ask people to write us messages, instead of just "signing in" on a guest book! Its on my page if you want to see a picture of it! GREAT IDEA and sooo much more personal! We will also have a calendar out that we are making with a picture of us on each month. We will have a sign that asks each guest to put their birthdays or anniversarys on our calendar so we can keep track of everyones special events as well as our own! :)

I like that it is DIY - gives it a more personal touch and this idea beats the usual signature leave-behind!  
If you like damask, you'll love my style blog.  You should check it out for more inspiration.
