A guest book is a must for every wedding: this way you’ll get a lot of greetings and wishes that will warm up your heart not even once after the wedding. You may also ask for date ideas, recipes, first child names and many other things that your guests may offer you. As we see more and more modern and minimalist weddings, I decided to round up some ideas for those of you who are going this way.
Photo Guest Books
One of the most popular and boldest ideas of a guest book today is a photo guest book. Place a Polaroid or Instax camera on the table, add cards to attach the photos or a whole guest books to insert them and add some pens and pencils for leaving messages and wishing you love. Photos will make your guest book clearer and will arise more memories than usual cards.

Go even further and create a video photo booth as a guest book.

Add a sign to clear up what to do and let your guests greet you with amazing videos – what can be more natural than their wishes at the moment of celebration?
