Fun Guest Book Alternatives

A guest book that is complete with love quotes, inspirational messages and blessings from your wedding guests is undoubtedly a cherished gift to hold on to for life. But how about giving the traditional guest book a twist and putting a little spin on the way in which your guests pen down their best wishes for you and your partner? We’ve got 6 really fun alternative guest book ideas coming your way in today’s article…

We bet you never thought that Jenga blocks could be put to use in any other way, but getting your guests to write messages on individual blocks is going to take plenty of skill and patience on their part. We suggest handing out fine tipped marker pens or gel pens for better handwriting!

A bottle of grape is a must on romantic dates and if both you and your partner love a glass of grape every so often, then asking your guests to write down their messages on a bottle or two is a great idea. In fact, why not use unopened bottles, which can be popped and enjoyed on your first anniversary? The bottles will make lovely keepsakes….if that’s your thing.

Want a few ideas on the best places to visit for a honeymoon or for a short vacation? Get a map and let your guests point out their favourite holiday spots on it. Instead of wishes, ask them to jot down a must-know travel tip instead.

Let your alternative guest book be a trendy one by getting your guests to sign their messages on a monogram of you and your partner’s initials. Use a black or gold marker if your monogram is white or pastel in colour and a light coloured marker if you plan to go with a black monogram.

How about keeping a guest book tree in your house that will be with you for life? Simply ask the guests to write down their well wishes on coloured cardboard paper and tie each message to a branch using some ribbon. It will make such a pretty reminder of an important milestone.

If you and your partner love jigsaw puzzles, then let your guests write down their favourite love quote on a single piece. A year later, take up the challenge of putting the jigsaw puzzle together.
