We decided a couple years ago that when our wedding day finally came around, we wanted a unique guest book. Personally, I just don't see much of a point of having a book of blank pages where people write their name and address. I already know who's attending... and I obviously have their address if they received an invitation, right?
Mr. Blue and I decided that we wanted to use our engagement session productively as well, so why not incorporate those pictures into the signing? We thought of having a matted frame for people to write messages on, but we didn't believe that we would actually use it. So, we thought that we'd use them to make an engagement album that has some blank pages scattered throughout for signing/messages from guests.
I am soooooo excited because the album was designed extremely well by our photographer. We picked 40 of our favorite pictures from the engagement shoot (I think we ended up with 300-400 pics total from that shoot!) and he made us a 30 page design template. Then the design was sent to graphi studios in Italy to be completed. The book came into the photographer last week and is currently in route to our house. I cannot wait to get it and look through the finished product! I'll post pictures when we get it in!
I hope everyone likes it when wedding day comes around. As an added bonus, we'll have an additional "ahhhh, remember when" coffee table book to look through as we get older!
Here's a peak at graphi (they'll also be making our wedding album, but that will be 60 pages instead of 30 pages):
