My initial plan (way back last summer when I still had all the time in the world!) was to create a photobook for our guestbook, using our fabulous engagement pictures. And then all of a sudden it was December, and certain things had to fall by the wayside, photo guestbook included.

There was, however, one thing that I did know for sure: I was not interested in purchasing a plain, lined book for people to simply sign their names. No offense to any brides out there who may do so, but line after line of signatures just doesn’t do anything for me. Instead, I purchased a navy blue Newport Kolo album. I found mine for $20 at Sam Flax here in Atlanta. Insert engagement picture, and ta da!

(Please excuse the sub-par picture quality. Our computer completely died last week, so I’ve been taking pictures with my blackberry!)

Then, I took a lovely picture frame inlaid with mother-of-pearl, which we received as an engagement gift, and I printed up the following, using an image from our invitations:

(It reads, Please leave a message for the bride and groom.)

Our florist is also preparing a silver footed bowl with white roses/hydrangea, and that will be our guestbook table! Now I just need to find a couple of good pens…
