What Should You Figure Out With The Wedding Book Meant For Your Guests?
It is not very common of couples of today to provide a special guests book for their invitees. It is simply enough if you make provisions for a normal book and get the guests to put down their names in it. The essence is that you should think of way of making this activity exceptional.
The first alternative will be to get the guests to sign a photograph in place of the guest book. A picture of the new couple should simply be padded on a mat bigger than the picture per se. Avoid including the picture frame because you will need enough room for signatures. Make sure that every guest who will like to sign on the mat should be given the chance to do so.
It is very common that the picture that should be used be selected by the couple themselves and this is often one of their best pictures. This will be very nice if the picture constituted one of those their dating pictures. Keep in mind that this is often conserved as memory to the couple as well as to tell the guests of the good times had together. A suitable picture for this purpose could also be a picture in which the couple is in the wedding garments. Whatever is used should be something of their liking. Some couples may even think of leaving the mat to be signed without a picture and a most favorite picture could be added later to it.
One more way of making this signing procedure look unique is to provide a picture of the guests for them to sign on. This will, of course be pictures that you took of the guests as they were making their entry into the ceremonial ground or the hall. For this to be possible a Polaroid camera will be supplied and a person who is well versed in taking pictures with it will be given the task. Remember that this is not only fun, but a way of making the guests feel as sense of belonging to the newly wedded couple. Remember to keep in place an album for immediately placing the signed pictures in it. A good album for this purpose can be made using a cardboard.
What you should also know is that a lot of guests care less about signing the guest book. A lot more are only concerned entertaining themselves during the feast. If you think you will have this type of guest, you can provide a guest book that will be taken from home to home and signed ahead of the wedding day. If you consider this option, you can ask your prospective guests to put down a few words on papers. These will be assembled and may be handed to the couple as an offering on the day of the marriage proper. If you will want the guests to post back their comments to you, you should make sure you provide them with a self-addressed and stamped envelop to make things easier for both of you.
If you find that you guests are also of the imaginative type of people, or those who are very inspired, you could send them a piece a paper for them to beautify. The paper should be about the same as that of a photograph. What will be written on the paper will be used to build up a good memory book for the couple. These should not only consist of words. Pictures and drawings could also be good features for this activity. Keep in mind that this activity is more than special and significant. This is another good way of incorporating all those who had the good will to be part of the party, but which situations may make it impossible for them to attend. They ought to be with you in spirit.
