1
Pick up a 20-by-24-inch frame that will complement your decor.

2
Choose a high-quality mat board in a light color. The mat should be acid-free and not glossy. Be sure the mat has a wide boarder with plenty of room for all your guests to write on - this will replace the traditional book.

3
Put a print or color copy of your wedding photo under the mat in the frame. (Use a copy of your picture instead of the real one in case someone slips with a pen.) Leave the glass off the frame.

4
Provide your guests with a couple of acid-free felt-tip pens.

Ask a few friends to sign the mat. This will let others know what the setup is for.

6
Replace the copy of your photo with the final version you want framed, once the event is over.

Assemble the mat, photo and glass to finish the framed guest book.
