Postcard Guest Book

[BeachBrideSoon]

Great ideas ladies!! I'm trying to figure out what to do for the guestbook!

Well ladies I wanted to share the lastest on my postcard guest book project.

 

I was trying to figure out how to set it all up. I thought about having a money card box to place the postcards in at the reception. I couldn't find one that I really liked.

 

I searched and searched for a white album/binder that I could use to hold the cards and non-pro pictures. I found one! It's a guestbook binder that can also be used to store photos and other momentos. I had the cover personalized with our wedding colors, names and dates. I purchased clear sleeves that I will use to store the postcards( similar to the inspiration pictures I posted earlier in this thread.)You can also just get the book itself and it comes in many colors. I got mine in the mail and it's so beautiful. The vendor was great to work with and I was sent a sample of the artwork before it was created.

 

Here's a picture of the book from the website. It's a little small but check out www.jennibick.com for more pics/product info. I definately recommend them!

Thanks for the info. We are planning on doing something similar with the postcards.

Super cute idea.  I love the idea of using it for showers too.  What about (depending on the size of the wedding) have someone hand them out during the wedding and explain as they do?  Table by table?

I did the vistaprint postcard thing too, for free! Jazzed them up a little and plan on scattering them on a table to add words of wisdom/advice on the back. We'll put them in to a photo album later on.

I am also thinking of doing something very similar. My WC suggested of making a Wish tree which I thought it was a great idea. I am planning to add postcards dropping from the tree and people can write their best wishes to us.

 

This is an inspiration picture

This is my first time attaching so lets hope this works. We are making a card similar to the one attached telling guests to send us their wishes. We have a mailbox from Home Depot we are using for them to deposit their cards. My MOH and I have collected generic postcards that just say florida with different scenes. I plan to buy more when I am in the keys in a few weeks that say florida keys. I only am getting 2-4 cards per picture to have variety. Also plan to tell guests to take a few as souvenirs if they wish. We are getting married at the postcard inn so we tried to use little touches of postcards throughout the day. Our place cards have a postcard graphic and the table numbers are postcards with florida animals (alligator, pelican, sea turtle, manatee, starfish, conch, etc).

That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing.

This looks super cute, I may try to do this. But since I'm not sure if we're having a private traditional reception - idk if my guests will have time to do this during the cocktail hour maybe.
