What do we mean guest capture experience?
When people talk about a guestbook, something very specific comes to mind. It’s a book that’s made available for guests to sign. Maybe they’re providing their name and address. Maybe they’re offering well wishes or advice.
Then think about the times you’ve waited in line to sign a guestbook. Maybe it was that wedding three summers ago when it was a over hundred degrees out, and you were standing out in the sun waiting to get inside. Maybe you think about that really heavy gift you bought off the gift registry, that you then had to hold the entire time you waited to sign the book. Or that time you had to wait in line while someone ahead of you took the time to flip through every single page of the book to see who else from their side of the family was already there.
And then? That guestbook gets picked up at the end of the day and it goes home. To sit in a drawer. Or a box. Or on a shelf in a closet.
Maybe you’ve been lucky enough to go to a wedding that had an alternate guestbook. Maybe you got to sign a poster featuring a photo of the about-to-be-weds. Or a piece of driftwood they picked up on the beach when they decided to get married. Or a wine bottle from the dinner party they threw to celebrate their engagement.
At least the guest book alternative fares a bit better. It can be displayed somewhere. Maybe on a bookshelf or a wall. Or maybe it too ends up in a box or tucked away at the back of a bookshelf in a room that rarely gets used.
Someday, you’re going to look at it. Someday you’re going to want to remember how you felt that day. You’re going to want to remember who was there celebrating with you. You’re going to want to think about the people who were part of that special day who are no longer with you.
Guestbooks aren’t for capturing signatures. Or words. They capture the guests who were present for your special day, and they do that so you remember.
That’s what we mean by a guest capture experience. You want something to capture the guests, the memories, and the joy from your special day. Joy Anthology helps you remember all the special people. Every time you look at your customized canvas or digital print, you’re getting an opportunity to think about and remember them. The people you love. The people you miss. The people who helped you become the person you are today.
