That is almost exactly what I am going to do! I am not good at journaling in the scrapbooks though, so I will do one page for each guest or couple, with a comment from me or Matt and a space for them to write something. And an empty space for a pic. I was thinking of putting someone(s) in charge of it and buying a polariod camera or something to make it immediate.

You did an AWESOME job! I am such a fan of the homemade stuff..

I like the idea of the polaroid- I am just trying to keep thing cheap and that film is crazy expensive. We both have cameras and will stalk people until we get good photos. I went and bough a cute basket that I am going to throw the book in along with our engagement photo book and some pens and markers. I made up a note for the side of the basket asking people to sign the book and letting them know we are going to be taking their photo. I wrote that if they didn't cooperate we had ways of taking unflattering photos--that should do the trick.

OMG, that is funny. Tricking them into cooperating. I want to start on this soon, I think it is the thing I am most excited about doing for my wedding.
