**Comparison and alternatives**

# Alternative to Wedding Guest Book

Find a guest book alternative you will enjoy revisiting.

[**Create your event**](https://ownpix.app/#pricing)

Guests can share from their browser, with no app to download.

## The short answer

Choose a keepsake that fits your guests: photos, handwritten notes, a display, or recorded messages. A shared photo album can complement any of them.

## A simple plan

### **Choose a keepsake**

Decide what you want to revisit later.

### **Prepare the station**

Put supplies where guests will pause.

### **Write one prompt**

Give guests a simple way to contribute.

### **Save the results**

Collect the keepsake and back up digital files.

## Choose by what you want to keep

| **Alternative** | **Guests contribute** | **You prepare** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Instant-photo book | A print and handwritten note | Camera, film, book and pens |
| Advice cards | A message or favorite memory | Cards, pens and a box |
| Signed puzzle | A name or short wish on a piece | Puzzle and permanent pens |
| Recipe cards | A favorite recipe | Cards and a collection box |
| Video messages | A short recorded message | A device and clear instructions |
| QR photo album | Photos and short videos from their phones | An event album and printed code |

A photo album is not the same as an audio guestbook. OwnPix collects photos and video clips; use a separate voice-message service if recorded audio is the keepsake you want.

## Make it easy to join in

Put the station near the entrance or drinks table. Try a specific prompt: “Share one favorite memory with us.” For an album, add: “Scan to share your photos and videos.” Ask before sharing pictures of other guests.

For instant prints, leave film and a pen nearby. [**Fujifilm's Instax mini 12 specifications**](https://www.instax.com/mini_12/en/spec/) explain its film and development time.

## How OwnPix helps

OwnPix gives guests one QR code or link for event photos and videos. It can sit alongside a physical guest book or another keepsake.
