Original Guestbooks

Having a guestbook at your wedding is a lovely way to remember your special day. But a traditional guestbook can feel a bit ordinary — here are some fun, creative alternatives.

Jenga

Let your guests write a memory or message on a Jenga block. Later, play the game and read all the notes as you build — creating both towers and memories.

Wishing Tree as a Guestbook

A wishing tree is a charming way to display well-wishes from friends and family. Choose a real tree you can plant afterward, or pick a decorative tabletop tree.

Beer Coasters with Questions

Place coasters with prompts on the tables so guests can leave messages without missing any of the celebration. A fun and original twist on the guestbook.

Polaroid

Provide a Polaroid camera for guests to snap photos. They can write short messages on the white border. For longer notes, supply small cards they can hang or stick into a guestbook.

DIY Guestbook

Looking for something different? Create a DIY guestbook: paint a large tree on canvas and have guests stamp their fingerprints as leaves. Later, display it as artwork in your home.

Puzzle

Have guests write messages on puzzle pieces. Assemble the puzzle afterward and enjoy reading their notes again and again.

Bench

Set up a wooden bench and ask guests to write messages on it. Later, place the bench in your home — a lasting reminder of your special day.

Question Cards

Invite guests to fill out question cards about their experience, wishes, and more. Design your own cards or use online templates.

Painting as a Guestbook

Commission a painting with blank spaces left for guests to write on. Hang it at home as a colorful memento that brightens any room.

Video Booth

Rather than text or photos, set up a video booth. Guests record messages, giving you a unique, personal guestbook to watch and hear whenever you like.

Party Photo App

Use a party photo app as a digital guestbook. Guests can post photos and messages in one convenient place, accessible anytime.
