About The Alternative Guest Book
An eye-catching alternative to the usual wedding guest book. Collect precious messages from all of your guests on our personalised message cards which we create and send to you for your guests to complete at the wedding. We then take these messages and create stunning framed artwork to provide a truly memorable and unique keepsake of your big day. The alternative guest book!
The Alternative Guest Book is the sister brand to The Illustrated Invitation (see our other profile on this site). It is the unique keepsake that everyone is talking about!
How does it work you ask?
Prior to the wedding day, we provide you a number of cards printed with your personal message to your guests on one side (inviting them to provide some words of advice or an amusing anecdote etc) and blank on the reverse for them to write their message.
We suggest you put a card for each guest on the tables at the reception. Feedback from our customers suggests that this also provides a great opportunity for all the guests to have a little fun together, sharing ideas on what to put!
After the wedding, you send the cards back to us so that we can create the artwork for your framed comments (which we later return with your frame so that you retain the original cards too).
Demand for our frames seems to have gone viral. Everyone loves them - the only debate is whether you would like your guest comments scanned (for their original hand-writing style) or typed! Check out the gallery on our website for examples of both of these.
We also know budgets can sometimes be tight when planning a wedding, but we feel that our frames are very reasonably priced, and we offer different options to suit all budgets, and sizes, from the very small and intimate wedding to a larger affair. It is also worth mentioning that prior to your wedding we only request a £100 deposit which comes off of the full cost of your frame, with the balance not being due until you approve your artwork for printing which will be a couple of months after your wedding day.
Prices range from £250 to £395 - this is the complete price, including your message cards, soft and hard copy proofs, and the framed final artwork.
Let's work together and we will create a stunning keepsake of your special day that you can treasure for years to come!
