I have never been a fan of the traditional guest book. It feels like you are "signing in" at a conference. Seriously...what do you do with it after the wedding? I was actually going to forget the whole tradition until I came across the Blurb Book. It is very close to the Kodak picture books that I have made in the past for family but the Blurb gives more options for a low price. We all love a low price!!
It only took me a couple of hours to do and finish. I used our engagement shots that our fab photographer took out in Manhattan Beach Ca. It was nice to be able to use these beautiful shots again in a different way. So, I used different layouts and kept specific pages blank with lines on it for our guest to leave a message. This makes it a lot more personal and I can just see it laying out on our living room coffee table for all to enjoy.

This is really a sweet idea, and like you said, you can see laying it out on a coffee table or just having it out somewhere. Otherwise, I don't know what you do with them>?
hey! just thought that I would write back about a comment that you left on my blog. the ties were from K&G superstore. not sure if that store is a just a mid west thing or what, but the ties were only 14.99 each! not to shabby!
I've been thinking a lot about the guest books too.. The typical white one ends up in a box and not on the coffee table.. A good family friend did something different which I might just do also... Find a really neat book, like a photography book from the area you're getting married at or a poetry book of love poems and use that as your guest book so it will always be something you will want to use!
