Guestbook Alternative - Print

Hey everyone. I am looking into going with a LV Print as the guestbook for our wedding. I am not sure what to do in regards to where the guests will sign (Matte vs Picture itself).  Also, how big of a print would I need for about 90 guests?  Did you use a LV print as your guestbook or something different?

Any help is appreciated :)

    We are thinking of doing this...have them sign the matte, like this for example: http://www.etsy.com/listing/93628887/wedding-guest-book-alternative-print?ref=sr_gallery_39&ga_search_query=wedding+guest+book+alternative&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=ZZ&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_page=5&ga_search_type=all&ga_facet=wedding+guest+book+alternative

    ooo ok lol that would be great.  :) i saw one where did a huge initial and have guests sign it.  my fear is if have a pic with matte that would look plain where not a lot of signitures.  or signed all in one area.   im OCD.

    Another (similar) idea is if you find a print you like, you can have a mat made to put around it, and then have guests sign the mat... If you wanted to frame it :) I really like that idea! I've been trying to think of ideas for a "guestbook" alternative

    I'm doing something along a similar idea - IMy stationary vendor on Zazzle had a coordinating poster (linky) so I had one personalized and printed with a promo code and I'm going to have our guests sign it and then I'll find a place to hang in at home.

    I had it printed as a 24x36 though - a standard poster size - and there will be more than enough space for our 40 some-odd guests.  I think the same size would be fine for 90 as well.  I think people generally tend to be space-conscious when signing things like guestbooks, cards and whatnot when they know others will be signing as well.

    We are getting married at the flamingo. I found a really nice print of the flamingo in black and white with our names and wedding date on it. Guests will sign the outside boarder which is white. I found it on etsy.

    Love Love Love all of the ideas. We decided to go with the below print.  Our wedding colors are black and white. I thought this was a neat pic.

     The etsy seller has been beyond sweet. http://www.etsy.com/shop/BellezzaPhotography  I will circle back once I receive the print.  Did you guys plan on having a guestbook sign or a different sign with different wording or just putting it on display thinking people will get the hint?

    We ordered a print with the "Welcome to LV Sign"  along with our names and date.  We are having everyone sign their name on the print.  I think it's 12x12ish...super cute.  I'll post pictures of when it when I get back.

    I'm doing something similar. My fiance proposed in a hot air balloon, so I had a picture that I took during the ride made into a 16x20 canvas. We are having people sign the canvas with gold paint pens. The whole thing cost under $30 :)

    That sounds beautiful! Are you doing anything regarding signage telling the guests that this is your "guestbook"?

    I was thinking I would write some kind of cute poem/note and put it in a little frame next to the canvas
