I AM GETTING MARRIED!

I am so excited to share, after 4 years my boyfriend has proposed. It was a total shock and brought more excitement than I ever anticipated.

This year has been the year of weddings and engagements for my group of friends. Through it all, I have found several great ideas that I would like to share. One specifically being the, Guest Book.

Most people don't ever refer back to their guest book, as it typically collects dust sitting on the book shelf. My friend Sara was looking for a creative way to incorporate her guest book in her everyday life. Ideas I found (sadly didn't think of on my own) are listed below:

Do you like having friends and family over, than a signature platter is perfect for you. Another option would be a signature vase. Check out the links below.

Another great option is a Wedding Photo Guest Book from Adesso Albums. This type of guest book is interactive and fun for your guests. They can take a traditional photo or capture a moment during the reception. Check it out by visiting the following link: http://www.adessoalbums.com/weddings.html

Decorative River Stones: One option would be to have your guests sign the stone and drop in a vase. There is an old Irish Catholic Tradition where guests would toss a stone in the water while makeing a wish for the married couple.  To follow the tradition you can have the vase filled with water.

I will continue to share my findings as they come.

Cheers,
