    I've always wanted an instant photo guest book, and for awhile considered having a photo booth and putting those pics into a guest book. But, this ended up not being in the budget.

    Since the Polaroid isn't sold anymore, I decided to buy a Fujifilm Instax camera and film (the camera plus 50 pics was $85 on E-Bay), and have everyone take pics with this to put in the guest book.

    For the book itself, I purchased a custom book from SheaChicDesigns on Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5545471), and she is putting photo corners in it to fit the Instax photos.

    Just thought I'd share my suggestions for others looking to do this. Anyone else doing an instant photo guest book?

    This is a general idea of what my book will look like:

    We are going to create our own (non-instant) photobooth using my camera, tripod, some curtains, and fun props.  FI is alo going to rig a LCD screen inside the "booth" so guests can check their image before using a remote switch to take the photo.

    I also plan on having a wish tree style guest book.  After the wedding I plan on making a scrapbook with the pics and corresponding guest wish.

    We are creating our own photobooth as well. Although the polaroid isn't being sold anymore I was able to find it on Ebay :-D So now I am just buying the film in bulk on ebay as well and will also have a back up camera incase I run out of film. The book will be a black paperbound book, where the guests can take their own photo and slip it into the slot and then leave a note.

     

    So it lets our guest have some fun
