\"Time<\/p>\n

Some pretty incredible alternative guest book ideas have come on the scene. And one particularly meaningful one is the Time Capsule Guest Book<\/strong>. Don\u2019t worry, it\u2019s not as \u2018techie\u2019 as it sounds. It\u2019s actually any creative way to capture and keep your wedding memories safe for a special future date (or dates): an anniversary, your move into a new home, the birth of your first child. See how easy and doable your own time capsule guest book can be, with these wonderful examples we found from real weddings and some great sites!<\/p>\n

DIY Ideas for Your \u201cTime Capsule\u201d Guest Book<\/h2>\n

\"DIY<\/p>\n

Click through to these sites for the details of each guest book variation:<\/p>\n

1 – \u2018Message in a bottle<\/strong>\u2019 – Love this idea (via Brides.com<\/a>) of using wine bottles labeled for anniversary years, so guests can choose for which milestone they\u2019d like to greet you! (Image by Jennifer Ling Photography<\/a>)<\/p>\n

2 – A sign giving the opening date<\/strong> – Letting guests know on what date or occasion you plan to open the \u2018time capsule\u2019 will help them plan what message to leave you! (Image of guest book sign from George Street Photo & Video<\/a>)<\/p>\n

3 – NYE resolutions and wishes in one<\/strong> – You could tie in your \u2018time capsule\u2019 with the season or holiday theme of your wedding\u2014like this New Year\u2019s resolution and wedding wishes form, spotted via Fete Nashville<\/a>.<\/p>\n

4 – Mason jar message keeper<\/strong> – This item is originally from Port Deva Designs<\/a> on etsy (though not available as of this writing). But you get the idea!<\/p>\n

5 – Stack of drawers<\/strong> – A quaint and lovely option from a handmade wedding we discovered on Rock N\u2019 Roll Bride<\/a>: a stack of drawers and a wood-slice sign.<\/p>\n

6 – Scrapbook of little envelopes <\/strong>– A neat idea (literally!) found via Project Wedding<\/a>. Keeps all the note cards nicely tucked away in a scrapbook-style album.<\/p>\n

7 – A display of vintage postcards and DIY box <\/strong>– A sweet, rustic-themed project from a real bride (she bought the cards, then stained and stenciled the \u2018time capsule box\u2019 herself), shared on her blog A Handcrafted Wedding<\/a>.<\/p>\n

8 – Chalkboard sign<\/strong> – Not all guests may be familiar with the \u2018time capsule\u2019 concept, so spell it out prettily\u2014as in this hand-lettered chalkboard sign found via Southern Living<\/a><\/p>\n
