Instant Photos in Your Guestbook

And it Makes a Great Gift Too!

By Donna Pilato, About.com

This week's tip was submitted by Chelsie Kenyon, About Guide to Mexican Cuisine.

I recently got married and I used a wonderful guest book by Adesso Albums. Each page has an opening for a Polaroid photo and plenty of room for the well wishes of the people in the photo. Each photo can contain 1,2,3 or 4 people depending on what you'd like. Just assign a person to the guest book table to take the photos as they arrive. Since everyone is dressed up for the event, they don't mind getting their picture taken and you'd be surprised how entertaining they find it. Guests can be creative with their sentiments since there are no lines on the page. I flip through my book every couple of weeks and it's such a fun reminder of how much fun that day was.

I highly recommend the Adesso album for any party or get together that you want to remember for years to come. It also makes a great gift. I'm planning a surprise birthday party for next February and there will definitely be an Adesso Album there for the guests to sign. It will be the perfect gift for the guest-of-honor to remember the event. I also have a Christmas party in December and I think I will have each family member take a picture and write down their favorite thing about Christmas, then I will give it to my Grandparents to keep. There are just so many uses for it! Try one- you'll never go back to regular guest books again!

Thanks for the tip Chelsie!
