Hi there! Today I want to share our instant photo guestbook that holds our guests photos from our wedding day! It was easy to make and, best of all, I didn't have to prepare anything before the wedding except to order the film!
camera and film to capture photos of our guests. They signed their names with a permenant acid free pen. It was so much fun to look through these after the wedding, more fun than signatures alone! (can't resist a paper store, even on our honeymoon!). It's simple and I love it. You might notice from the first photo that I actually covered the photo hole on the front of the album with an instax wide photo that my bestie took on our wedding day.
I adhered six photos per page (front side only) and added bits of lace and fabric to embellish! I'm so happy we have this keepsake to remember our wedding guests with! xo. elsie
That is such a cute idea!! I love it!!

Love your album. Now please, pretty, pretty please, tell me about your nail polish in these photos. It's fabulous.

Such a great idea. And I love that you're able to look back and see what everyone was wearing!

I am planning to do this very same thing at my wedding! Like you said, it's so much more fun to actually see the people, rather than read their names!

Love the idea of having a photo of each quest instead of just a signature...much more personal!

this is a very unique idea. :-) It's nice to actually see who were there on your special day. :-) It's a different one from the usual guest books that we have wherein people sign in and write their message. :-)

My friends had a photo booth guestbook with silly props and it was fun just to be a guest at the wedding!

What a fun & simple idea! My family are having a big get-together this summer, our last one for quite a while, and I think I might have to bring along some disposable cameras and then put something similar to this together. I can't quite justify buying an instant camera for that one event, but a disposable camera, yes.

Love this idea.

How cute! I haven't done anything new with my wedding photos in years, but I really should. Thanks for the inspiration!
Love,

YES! We did a similar idea for our Oct 1st wedding this year. we had an instax mini photo taken of all of our guests and then attached them all to a large old barnwood frame backed with vintage fabric and twine (we clipped the photos to the twine with mini clothespins). it is by far my favorite thing from our wedding and we have it hanging in our livingroom :)

What perfect timing! I am trying to figure out what I want to do for a guest book at my wedding in August! This is such a cute idea!
