Post-Wedding Guestbook Signing

Hello All!

My husband and I were married last week and in lieu of a guestbook, we asked our guests to sign the back of their escort cards. The idea is that I will take the photos of them from our photo-booth and candid reception shots to create an album that has pictures of them with their signed cards glued in next to their picture. I thought we'd be more likely to look back on it and share it that way. I knew that not everyone would sign them, but there are some key people who didn't including my now mother-in-law, other family, and some close friends. While I don't want to track down every person who didn't sign theirs, is it crazy to ask key people to sign one now? Or even the next time we see them, which may not be for a couple months?

Thanks for your thoughts,

  • You still have the escort cards? I feel like those always get thrown away. 

    I wouldn't track anyone down. If you come over for dinner or something, I suppose you could do it. I personally would think you were being a little eccentric and silly, but I'd sign it. 

    The likelihood that you'll care about your guestbook in a few years is small. I wouldn't waste a whole lot of time with it. Enjoy your pictures instead! Those will last longer and matter more.

  • Why don't you just add the photos without the cards? If they come over you can show them the book and see if they would like to write something then
  • Thanks Guys. I know it's kinda crazy and if it weren't such important people, I wouldn't have even thought about it. I think I'll do what Gustafson suggested, make the book with room in case they want to do one later. Thanks!
