Instead of having our guests sign a book at our wedding, we asked them to write little notes for us to read on our one-year anniversary. We tucked them away after the wedding and we didn't peek at them (I promise!) until our anniversary. It was such a fun surprise to read them and relive our wedding day!
I'm now trying to come up with a way to make these special cards into a piece of art, so we can enjoy them always. I'm thinking that framing them in a grid with a wide ivory mat and gold frame (our wedding colors) would be beautiful. I really want it to look elegant and pretty, and not at all cheesy! Any ideas?
Love this idea Kate! Wish I would've known about it before our wedding :-). What a fun addition to your anniversary celebration...
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely, tangible memories of a lovely day. Nice idea to frame these to LAST!
ReplyDeleteYes!! Love your play on "LAST" :)

So cute! I may steal this idea one day :)
ReplyDeleteKate,
ReplyDeleteA short time ago I completed Misha's Wedding gift (a wooden box and scrapbook). The wooden box holds the response cards to her wedding invitations and the cards they received for the engagement and wedding. The box is decoupaged with cards and other paper items from her wedding. I have no photos but i am sure this small seed of an idea will thrive in your brain. Think on it. XOXOX Rachel
I love these ideas, Rachel! I will mull them over and see what I can come up with. You are so creative! xoxxx
DeleteWhat a sweet and wonderful idea! And how special that you got to "relive" your wedding day! :)
