A New Take on a Picture Album

ELloydguestbook_655

For another personalized twist on a guest book, have your guests do more than just write you a note—have them snap a photo of themselves on your special day and add it to the book!


    Simple supplies:
  • Polaroid camera and lots of film (Polaroid.com)
  • Large guest book
  • Permanent markers
  • Tape or photo corner stickers (Michaels.com)

With a Polaroid camera (who doesn't love absolutely instant film!) have your guests take turns taking pictures of each other and tape it into your guest book. They can add a note into the book to accompany the photograph, forever leaving you a smiling hello.


It's as easy as 1-2-3!

If you want to involve your guests even more then i suggest using a service like GuestSnapper (http://www.guestsnapper.com) which gives you an online wedding album for your guests to upload their pictures. Saves money on disposable cameras and running around chasing for pictures. You then use their pictures in your DIY album and it doubles as an online version whilst you get the printed one sorted.

Perhaps a couple should hire a professional like the baltimore wedding photographers. Wedding photographers are able to capture precious moments with a hint of art.

Wow, really wonderful. Having a wedding photos and albums is a romantic and memorable thing. Several years later, it must be a very special and valuable thing for the couples.

This is just adorable. Couples should have a good wedding album. But before that, couples must have great pictures. Perhaps a couple should hire a professional like the baltimore wedding photographers. Wedding photographers are able to capture precious moments with a hint of art.

Really lovely... I like these personalised ideas a great deal, and it means an extra book of wedding photos to look at :)
