A Guestbook is a traditional wedding element where guests can write their well wishes, congratulations, or messages to the couple. It's a way for attendees to leave a lasting memory of their presence at the wedding. What we love about this idea is that you can take this simple concept and turn it into something COMPLETELY UNIQUE.

And if you think that a Guestbook is always just a blank book in the corner, think again.

Here are some alternative Guestbook ideas for your wedding day:


SHARING AS A COUPLE: mykonos weddings.com unique guestbook
Create a page or more to introduce yourselves and your story and share it with your guests. You can include a pre-wedding photoshoot in there, pictures of you with your guests from other special days or pictures of things that are important to you. This will make the Guestbook even more special and meaningful.


BRING THE POLAROID:
Have your guests take a polaroid picture of themselves and paste it on the page including their wishes. This will make the book fun and true to the moment, creating a personalized photo album of your guests.


MAKE IT A QUIZ:
Add fun elements such as fill-in-the-blank sections or even a quiz about the couple! This will be a great way to get everyone involved and make the Guestbook even more memorable.


FINFERPRINT TREES:
Guests leave their fingerprints as leaves on a tree, creating a unique and artistic guestbook. This can be very symbolic, leaving their own fingerprint as their signature to bless your union and your shared moments for the years to come. They can also include wishes and memories in the tree by writing them down, making the tree a full blessing creation. Don’t forget to provide some tissues afterwards.


PUZZLE GUESTBOOKS:
Each guest signs a puzzle piece, creating a fun and interactive artpiece that could also be a great statement piece of decor in your future living room - a testament to the shared joy of your special day.


SEND IT IN A POST CARD:
Select a variety of postcards from your wedding destination like Mykonos and spread them around on a decorated table. Ask your guests to write a wish on a postcard and then use a handmade wooden mailing box for them to place it in.


WRITE IT ON A STONE:
A wonderful idea for summer beach weddings in Mykonos, use white pebbles and a colorful marker, ask your guests to write their wish on a stone and place it in a jar.

LET IT FLY:
Hand out to your guests a tag and a lantern, ask them to write a wish on the tag, tie it on the flying lantern and then all together send them off to the sky. It's a breathtaking spectacle that symbolizes the collective blessing soaring towards your union.


So, dear couples, as you embark on the journey of planning your wedding, let your Guestbook be a canvas of creativity, an expression of your unique love story. These ideas, whether traditional or whimsical, capture the essence of your celebration, ensuring that every page turned, every puzzle piece signed, and every postcard sent becomes a cherished memory.
