Step 1
Think about the couple and find out if there is any kind of theme to their wedding. Determine whether they are more appreciative of books, picture frames or unique home accessories. Evaluate how much can be spent on a guest book and how you can make the signing of the guest book fast and easy.
-
Step 2
Now get creative. One idea is to go to a craft store and buy a mat photo frame that will display their engagement photo and can be signed by guests upon entering the reception. Make sure to provide color-coordinated markers for a crisp contrast.
-
Step 3
Borrow a Polaroid camera and snap photos of guests as they arrive. Have each guest write a little congratulations note at the bottom of their photo. At the end of the day, gather the photos and place them in a photo album.
-
Step 4
Purchase a small sapling in a portable pot and have it next to the entrance of the reception center. Cut out paper flowers that guests can write on and attach with ribbons to the tree. The tree can be planted at the couple's home and the paper flowers can be slipped into a photo album.
