Her Guest Book Stole the Prize!
| Every time I attend a wedding I am WOWed by the creativity of the bride. There is always one thing that sticks out as being amazingly unique… one of those things that makes you say… “Why didn’t I think of that?” At my friend Katie’s wedding last September, she stole the “unique and creative prize” with her one-of-a-kind guest book. Her wedding was of the destination sort up the Northern California coast in the quaint seaside community of Sea Ranch. The ceremony took place in a hilltop church that featured floor to ceiling windows that framed the spectacular views of the surrounding redwoods. When you stepped outside the building you could see and hear the crashing waves of the Pacific. It was absolutely stunning. Katie spent many summers there as a child and then as a couple these two frequented this locale on weekend get-aways. Sea Ranch means a lot to them and so they chose it to be “their wedding spot” forever etching Sea Ranch in their history together.
To commemorate Sea Ranch, Katie and Steve chose to have guests sign the pages of a hardback, coffee table style book featuring photographs of Sea Ranch. What a cool idea!

| Here are some ideas to help inspire you to create a one of a kind guest book of your own:
#1 If you’re having a destination wedding think of getting a book like Katie did that features your wedding location or area. Here are a few:
#2 Create one of those hardback Photo Books from Shutterfly or Kodak Gallery featuring your favorite photos.
#3 Select a book that represents you and your guy’s favorite “stuff”.
I hope these ideas give you some inspiration for your big day. Until next time, have a blast planning and always, always, always — remember to dream big, gals! |
