On notonthehighstreet.com I have seen a guest book where everyone puts an ink fingerprint and it is a leaf on a tree. Lovely symbolism if you like that kind of thing!

At our wedding we had autograph teddy bears which all of our guests signed. How about one like this, a christening bear?

A wishing tree, we had one for our lo's naming day, basically a pot filled wit decorative twigs and a bowl of luggage labels everyone write a wish or message on the label then hangs it on the tree.

They we had this poem in a frame next to it.

Wishing Tree
Here stands my wishing tree
Though it looks a little bare
But it would look so pretty
With the thoughts you want to share

So please pick up the pen and write
A joke, a note, a quote
Then tie it to the tree
And watch the wishes float

Make sure you don't forget
It would be such a shame
To hang your card upon the tree
Without signing your Name

And when the day is over
I can?t wait to have a look
Then I will keep the little labels
In a very special book
