just wanted to share what i'm using for my "guest book"

 

i rounded up a bunch of generic photos of cancun and of our wedding resort (dreams cancun) and made an 8x8 photo book on shutterfly. the guests can sign in the margins around the pics, sort of like how you'd sign someone's school yearbook. i figure i only have 32 guests, so they don't need a lot of room to sign. (i know it's not too original, i've seen this done before with pics of the couple, but we really didn't have enough of those available, as we didn't take engagement pics. if you're in the same boat, and like the photo book idea, this is an alternative)!

 

anyway, here it is: http://share.shutterfly.com/action/w...0IZtWzhy5asnIA

 

it cost me about $25, and i don't have it in my possession yet to be able to comment on quality. a cheaper alternative would be to print pics yourself and just scrapbook them, leaving plenty of space for signing around them!

some from stock photography sites that i can access at work, but most from doing searches on flickr ... a lot of photos there are protected, but many are available for download ... just make sure you click on "all sizes" at the top, and then download the largest size available, otherwise the resolution will likely be only good enough for screen, not print.

i mostly chose to do this because i wanted to check out the quality of their books for when i do my actual wedding album and gift albums. if i like the quality and it works out well as a guest book, it will definitely be what i do for our AHR (but with actual DW pics!).

didn't receive it yet, but i placed the order at night on 4/17, and got an email saying the order has been shipped on 4/21, saying it's estimated to arrive between 4/24 and 4/29. so, i'd say about a week and a half, two weeks tops?

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
