Hi loves! Let's talk about a wedding reception staple - guest books!

There are so many details to consider when planning your reception decor. One detail which can sometimes be overlooked, but can actually become such an important memory to treasure for years to come, is the ~Guest Book~. Traditionally, it’s a simple book where guests sign their names and leave messages, but why not make it cute and personalized? This little detail is rather easy to customize to your taste and style, so have fun with it! Here are some of my favorite creative and unique guest book ideas to make your wedding memories something very special for you.
AUDIO GUESTBOOK - FOR THE COUPLE WHO LOVES VOICE MEMOS
Leave a message at the tone? Girl, I'll leave you an audio book. I know some people shy away from making phone calls nowadays. Me, I love them! (That or voice notes!) Audio messages carry so much more emotion and raw genuinity, and actually hearing someone's voice wishing you joy and happiness can be so precious in years to come. I've seen this retro rotary telephone at quite a few weddings recently, so as they're gaining popularity - they shouldn't be hard to find, and guests always love "signing" it!

GUITAR GUESTBOOK - FOR THE COUPLE WHO LOVES MUSIC

Ready to rock your wedding in a totally unique way? Ditch the traditional guest book and let your friends and family sign a guitar! This super fun idea is perfect for couples who are music lovers or just want to add a little extra flair to their celebration. Guests can grab a colorful marker and leave their best wishes, funny quotes, or doodles on the body of the guitar. Not only does it create a one-of-a-kind keepsake, but it’s also a fantastic conversation starter! After the wedding, you’ll have an awesome, personalized piece of art to hang in your home and relive those sweet memories every time you strum. It's the ultimate way to let your guests add their own harmony to your big day!

SHADOW BOX HEART GUESTBOOK - FOR THE COUPLE WHO WANTS DECOR

This is a super easy, but unique guestbook which you can repurpose as a piece to display in your home to remember all the special people who celebrated with you. Pick up some little wooden hearts, a couple shadow boxes, and some sharpies, have your guests sign their best John Hancock and sweet note, and you have an adorable memory to hang on your wall.

POSTCARD GUESTBOOK - FOR THE COUPLE WHO LOVES TO TRAVEL
Ok, this is definitely the cutest, most unique guestbook I've seen... the bride was so excited about it. This guestbook featured a carousel of postcards featuring photos of the couple snapped from their travels around the world. Each guest can select a postcard to write their wishes on and then "sends" it to the couple by putting it in the mailbox! How creative!!

POLAROID GUESTBOOK - FOR THE COUPLE WHO ARE ALWAYS SNAPPING PICS
Add some visuals to your guestbook! This is a classic fan favorite - I always see guests have a fun time snapping their polaroids. This is an easy guestbook to put together, and you can add some personality by getting cute stickers and "frames" for the polaroids. It's a great way to capture instant moments paired with authentic words.
