Engagement Guestbooks

I've been working hard this winter on lots of exciting new things for next year's brides :). One of products that I'm most excited about offering this year is the Guest Book Album. This piece is a press-printed book of engagement photos, surrounded by lots of white space so your guests can sign around the artwork. Basically, it looks like a book of photography that you could find in Barnes and Noble... only the photos are of you! The books come with a hard cover, dust jacket and an embossed luster sleeve. I've just ordered my first of quite a few books, and I can't wait to get them in. I'll be sure to post a few photos when they arrive :). I've worked in graphic design for almost four years, and it's always fun to infuse my wedding work with some fun designs.

If you'd like to see an example, click here or play the slideshow below for a recent design I completed. For this book, I used black space instead of white space, which created a bit trendier design. I include a smear-proof pen with all my guest books, so for books with more black space, I would include a silver pen, making it even cooler :). If you're interested having me make a guest book of your engagement photos, shoot me an email, and we can chat :).

So, I really like that book. Its very well done.

That Ingrid Michaelson song is one of my favorites as well.

Now if only you could get the hard copy of the book to play music when its opened.
