Hi, I'm trying to find a poem to put in the front page of my guestbook. I'm normally quite good at making up little poems but for some reason my brain isn't working! I've found this one so far:
Please write a message in this book, For the bride and groom to treasure. These memories will keep our day alive, Bringing joy we cannot measure. All your good wishes will be kept secure, Bound up within this book, And once in a while we'll open it, And take another look.
But I'm not sure, what do you think? Thanks!

On this table you will find our wedding guest book for you to sign. Please take a moment on a page so bare a sentiment or two to share. Please use a page for each of you so that we may know your feelings true. This little book will serve as we keep it forever in loving memory.
********
Welcome! We're so glad you cam We'd love to have you sign your name, And write perhaps a line or two By which we can remember you. Then when our wedding day has passed Our memories of this day will last For when we look at it we'll see Kind words from friends and family
******
A precious collection of memories, this guest book is meant to be. Take your time and collect your thoughts, then write them down for posterity. You might choose words of wisdom, encouragement or a joke. Possibly a poem, a funny drawing or a wedding anecdote. Whatever your means of expression, our gratitude we cannot measure. This guest book will be, no doubt, an heirloom we will treasure.
******
This day for us is special A time beyond compare The joy we feel in our hearts We're glad our guests can share. Now share with us your marriage tips For a long and happy life Present us with your words of wisdom To help us as man and wife

CommentAuthorRedSez
It's to take a CD and put pictures on it so we can get lots of different pictures.
You've shared our day and taken snaps We would love you to fill the gaps of things the photographer may have missed like a silly dance or a special kiss So take this CD from us your host add your pics and send in the post So for showing us the day in your view We just want to say thank you!

Oh thats a lovely idea its all them little special touches isnt it, we are planning on having cameras on the tables for people to snap away at but actually that is probably a cheaper way of doing it isnt it?

CommentAuthorRedSez
That postbox one is nice. :)
Mrs Brammer, I've gone for CD's then I can decide if I want to print them. It possibly is a little cheaper? Not sure. It's cost me about £20 for 100 CD's and Red CD cases. Just need to find something to hold the CD's in yet. x
CommentAuthorShazk
That aint bad the disposible cameras are about£4 each plus printing and that not cheap now days may have to pinch this idea aswell lol x

CommentAuthorRedSez
Go for it! The picture quality should be better as well with digital cameras. x

Thank you so much for coming , we are so glad you’ve shared our day Creating happy memories that will never go away. But memories fade with time and so if you could write yours here We could relive it time after time, throughout the years. It doesn’t need to be an essay .Just a line, a word ,a phrase To capture the feeling of this ,our happiest of days.
