I am working on mine right now actually (almost done)... I just got a black scrapbook/photoalbum and decorated it myself and bought photo-corners and put them on the pages. There are pics in my Misc. DIY album.

Hey there...erd...I am doing the same thing! Only difference is I was thinking of leaving the photo corners out for people to place...do you think that's crazy?? I think the cost of the ready made albums was insane!

I just put the photo corners in because there are a lot of people coming who like to play helpless (ie FHs family) and they might not be able to figure out how to do it. And I don't want it to be too much work for the guests..just want them to be able to insert the pic, sign and get back to partying

Re: polaroid guestbook

i had it set up on a table in the reception room....with a little poem in a frame explaining what it was i didn't have anyone man the table and it ended up fine! a huge hit actually! I do reccomend however getting a big photo album or getting crafty and making one of some sort....the one i ordered off theknot.com only had 40 slots (which i thought would be fine) and there are so many extra pics just shoved in the back 'cause they had no where to go!!!! but it's such a nice keepsake to have :) another idea, if u have the extra cash to spend, my cousin rented a photo booth from NYCPhotobooth. it was SO adorable. they set it up in the cocktail hour room, and there is a host that puts all the photostrips in a book for ya. we did the Poloroid 'cause it saved a TON of money & still had the same touch...people loved it

Re: polaroid guestbook

Thanks for the advice ladies!
One more question. I'm totally clueless about scrapbooks. I've only seen the scrapbook pages with the plastic over them. How do I get it without? Do I just get regular cardstock and punch the holes in it to attach?

I actually thought about the photobooth, but forgot about it once I saw the price

Can you post the poem you used? I saw one on here once and I thought I saved it but now I can't find it anywhere!
