Once you've found the perfect wedding guest book, it's crucial to make sure it doesn't go unnoticed! Choosing the right spot and taking additional steps to ensure that all of your guests see it when they arrive at your reception is important. Here are some helpful tips to get your wedding guest book signed by all of your friends, family, and loved ones.
WHERE IS THE BEST PLACE TO PUT A WEDDING GUEST BOOK?
Wedding experts tend to agree on this one thing: your wedding guest book should be placed on a table at or near the entrance to your reception. Avoid putting it in an alcove or out-of-the-way corner of the room; placing it near the entrance will ensure that everyone sees it and increases the chances of people signing it on their way in or out. You can also consider placing your wedding guest book at the entrance of your wedding ceremony, which is convenient for early arrivals who aren't sure what to do while they wait. Just remember to bring it with you to your reception!
GETTING YOUR WEDDING GUEST BOOK NOTICED
At 2b1wedding, we believe that our guest books are eye-catching, but in the excitement of a reception, you might need a little help drawing attention to it, even if it's stationed by the entrance. Place a decorative sign on the table - or enlist a creative friend to create some custom chalkboard art with a simple message reminding guests to sign your guest book. A table near the entrance is a good start, but to make an even bigger impact, consider adding other elements to the table to attract your guests. It's a great place for a stunning flower arrangement that matches the ones on the guest tables, photos of you and your significant other, and other decorations. Some beautifully arranged bowls and jars of candy will certainly get attention - who can resist candy?!
ENCOURAGING GUESTS TO SIGN
You've done everything you can to make sure your wedding guest book is noticed, but there may still be some guests who forget to sign it. Perhaps they don't want to wait in line while entering the reception, or maybe they're too tired (or tipsy) by the end of the night. To ensure that your guests leave a message for you and your spouse, consider appointing a friend or family member as your official guest book attendant. Have them stand at the table and greet everyone who enters, asking them to sign the book. Do the same when it's time to leave. Even when people are mingling or dancing after dinner, your attendant can gently remind guests to sign the book and ensure that those pages get filled.
