Five different spins on the traditional guestbook

Puzzle Pieces
Let your guests express their sentiments on one side of these wooden puzzle pieces by Bella Puzzles (bellapuzzles.com). On the flip side, your handmade puzzle can be customized to reveal a beautiful wedding portrait with your names and wedding date. $85-$600.

Signature Plate Collect signatures on a large ceramic serving platter for a wedding day memento you’ll treasure. Try buying a serving dish at a local ceramic shop, such as All Fired Up in Winter Park (allfireduponline.com), where you can have it fired after your wedding. $10-$90, depending on the size of the serving dish.

Wishing Tree Ask your guests to write their best wishes on colorful ribbons and then hang them on a wishing tree, like this DIY version by Beau-coup (beau-coup.com). $39.95 per kit that includes tree, decorative accessories and ribbons.

Photo Booth Let your friends snap some silly shots of themselves via a photo booth by Photobooth Rocks (photoboothrocks.com). Guests also can leave a 30-second video message. Rentals start at $699 for a two-hour package.

Ad Libs Encourage your guests’ creative side with an ad lib guestbook. Pages like this one, available through Etsy retailer August Press (etsy.com), can be customized to your taste. Less than $1 each.
