How to Make a Polaroid Guest Book

Posted September 28, 2011 | ♥ 24 Comments

Today, we’re sharing one of our favorite guest book alternatives: the polaroid guest book. Remember those cameras of yesteryear that would take an image instantly – long before camera phones were invented? Well, they’re back and bigger than ever. Instead of a boring signature, have guests capture the moment on film for an unforgettable moment. Then, have them place the photo in a book for plenty of laughs after the wedding. It’s easy to set up a polaroid guest book station: just include a guest book table, a polaroid camera, plenty of film (you don’t want to run out), a scrap book, photo sticker mounts, and plenty of pens. Place a sign on the table instructing guests to snap a photo, sign their names and stick the photo in the book with a message. After your wedding day, you’ll have a fun visual flip-through polaroid guest book with plenty of hilarious, candid shots – and sentimental thoughts from guests. Here’s a little inspiration to get you started…

If you happen to have twine, clothespins and you’re blessed with a pretty tree at your reception, have guests display the photos like so…

… and put them in a scrapbook after the wedding!

Happy Planning!
