The guest book is a formal register that your guests sign as they arrive at the ceremony or reception.  It serves as a memento of who attended your wedding.  This book is often placed outside the ceremony or reception site, along with an elegant pen and penholder.  A guest book attendant is responsible for inviting all guests to sign-in.  A younger sibling or close friend who is not part of the wedding party may be well-suited for this position.

There are many style guest books, pens, and penholders to choose from.  Some books have space for your guests to write a short note to the bride and groom. View our many styles of Guest Books

Some things to consider:  Make sure you have more than one pen in case one runs out of ink.  If you are planning a large ceremony (over 300 guests), consider having more than one book and pen so that your guests don’t have to wait in line to sign-in.   View all of our Guest Book Pens
