For my best friend’s baby shower, I wanted to come up with a usable and practical guestbook. I had seen it before, and I thought building blocks would be cute. I bought a pack from Hobby Lobby. I made sure they had some blank sides. Then I came up with a cute sign to sit beside it. I had a jar I wrapped some pumpkin ribbon around, and then people could write on them and place them in the jar when finished. I think it was such a cute idea that she could easily display in the baby’s room!
At my cousin’s bridal shower, we did a time capsule as her “guestbook”. The theme for the shower was miss to mrs., so we kept it simple. Her maid of honor brought a large jar to store them in as well as made a sign. Then I made the actual cards for everyone to sign. I included a copy below without a logo if you want to use it yourself. On their first wedding anniversary, they will look at all of them!
For Emily’s baby shower, I definitely wanted some sort of guest book. I opted to keep it simple though. I bought a cute blue/green picture frame from Hobby Lobby that already had a mat with it. Then the “picture” was the invitation. I had everyone sign the mat, then placed it in the frame to send home with Emily.
I recently hosted a Baby Sprinkle for my sister in law. I wanted to do some kind of fun guestbook that was different. I did some looking around online, and I decided to do a form of Mad Libs.
One of the items I was in charge of for my cousin's couples shower in Memphis was the guestbook. I contemplated many different options. My original thought was to try and do some sort of guestbook that tied directly to the theme of the shower...Memphis, BBQ, Elvis, etc. My best friend had a cute idea of getting everyone to sign an Elvis record. My biggest concerns were a) how would they display it; b) how expensive it would potentially be; c) how easy would this be to do. I decided in the end to go a safer route. I saw various shadow box ideas, but decided to just come up with a version of my own.
For Melody's First Birthday, I wanted a simple guestbook. I contemplated whether a guestbook was even necessary, but I really wanted something to document everyone there. I came up with many ideas, but they all were becoming either way to complicated OR I had no clue what I would do with the guestbook when the party was over. So I opted for simplicity.
For my best friend's baby shower, I gave her a couple of options for a guestbook. Since she would be the one displaying it, I wanted her involved to an extent without giving too much away. I found some different options through Pinterest, and I let her pick. She thought it would be cute to have an elephant and balloons that people signed. So I took that idea and ran with it.
As I have mentioned in a previous post, my sister-in-law's baby shower had a storybook theme. When trying to decide a guestbook, it seemed fitting that it be a storybook that people signed.
My best friend and Matron of Honor hosted my lingerie shower. It was a lots of fun, and she had great food and decorations. We teamed up when deciding the decor and she was nice enough to let me even pick out the yummy food!
I have four guestbook ideas that were used during my wedding showers and wedding that I want to share with you. All four were unique to the event, but I hope they can inspire you when deciding a guestbook for a future event you may be hosting.
