Unique Weddings / Unique Ideas / Guest Books

There are some really stunning guest book ideas & I've seen so many unique ideas this year.

A simple but effective idea, is to get all your guests to sign one of the cut out shapes& they can then be put together and framed to make a fantastic & sentimental piece of art

Another simple and effective idea is A wish tree 

A really unique idea is to sign a Jenga brick & you can be reminded of the wedding every time you play!

Another great arty idea is to use inks & have everyone make a print of their thumb as though it’s a leaf on a branch – it looks amazing when complete

Getting your guests to take a polaroid picture of themselves & leave a message is not only fun but bang on trend with the whole vintage themed wedding

Finally, I really this idea of getting your guests to write a message and post it into one of the bottles
When it gets to the anniversary’s these bottles represent, they will be smashed to reveal all the messages left by your wedding guests

Guest books have come a long way since the book & pen idea & there endless possibilities.. I hope you like the ones I’ve shared as much as I do ..

Unique Wedding Planning / Entertaining the kids / Ideas / Inspiration

Weddings are long days for anybody ….. especially for children!

If there are a number of children present at a wedding it’s important to keep them entertained .. luckily there are so many good ideas around to help you do this …

An idea that I love is supplying each child at the wedding with their own disposable camera. This instantly makes them feel they have a role in the day and will keep them busy
You could leave them to do their own thing or turn it into a game for them

  

You could supply the children with a list of shots to get by the end of the day … it will be interesting to see your wedding day from the child’s perspective

Keeping the kids entertained during the wedding breakfast is also important.
Another idea I like is supplying the kids with a gift bag on their chairs with small gifts inside. Things such as, games to play at the table, colouring books, crayons and bubbles! You’ll be surprised how long it keeps them busy ..and quiet through the speeches!

In any outside space it could be a great idea to leave a selection of games that they could play on a grassed area during the drinks receptions and for a run about after the meal

All these ideas are inexpensive, and well worth the investment..
