We Met in a Bar

ooohhh

now there is an idea

We didn’t have engagement pics taken, which makes the whole frame signing, and even picture guestbook a little odd. (If we do a picture guestbook it will be pics of us over the years and scanned mementos) But we are both graphic designers and love cool posters, so this idea makes me happy :)

Image from here (it was hers!) and poster from here.

My sis did this at her wedding in lieu of a guestbook, and five years later they still smile and laugh at what everyone wrote. I think on their wedding day they put their invitation inside, then replaced with a wedding photo after the fact. We love the idea and are doing it, too… walls are a much better place to read loving thoughts than inside one of 1,000 books that will never be pulled off the shelf again.

We didn’t do engagement pics either. This is definitely a cool idea. We are thinking about having people sign some old skis that we’ll hang. Not quite sure yet…

I hate guest books. This is lovely. Once again, Heather saves the day.

[...] Instead of framing a typical photo of you and your fiance for your guests to sign, why not use this rockin’ poster? It’s only $36! {Via We Met In A Bar} [...]

[...] us happy and relaxed the whole day. So although I love this print and think it could work great for this kind of guestbook, I wouldn’t want anyone to write inside the heart… and that just something [...]
