The most unique guestbook at your wedding
Instead of signatures in a book, each guest paints
a numbered box of your photo. At the end of the evening:
a complete painting for the wall.
Laten we eerlijk zijn
You know them. That stack of guest books in your parents' closet. Thirty years of weddings, and not once has it been opened since the day itself.
Or your own perhaps? That one birthday, that anniversary, that baby shower? When was the last time you actually looked at all those signatures and said "congratulations"?
Het probleem met traditionele gastenboeken?
They start with good intentions. That beautiful leather cover. That special pen. The first few guests who show off with a nice message.
But then...
- Guest #15 only writes his name because "so much beautiful has already been said"
- Your best friend cries during her speech and completely forgets to sign
- Uncle Henk monopolizes three pages with his life story
- Half of the guests forget to walk past the table at all
And at the end of the evening? A half-full book that might be opened twice in the next 20 years. If youyou're lucky.
Zo simpel dat het bijna Gênant is
After watching these videos you may think: "That seems complicated to arrange."
The opposite is true. We've made it so simple that it takes more work to arrange a traditional guestbook.
This is literally all you have to do:
Step 1: Send us your perfect picture
That photo where you are both beaming. The one your mother wanted a print of. Simply upload via WhatsApp or email.
You will receive a preview quickly. Not good? Different photo, no problem.
Step 2: We get started
Our designers transform your photo into a painting-by-numbers design. Each box is given a number. Each number is given a colour. No two boxes next to each other have the same colour, so it remains exciting for every guest.
Step 3: The package arrives
Complete. In detail. Everything is included:
- The pre-printed canvas
- All paints (exactly measured per box)
- 150 brushes (yes, one for each guest)
- Instruction cards for the tables
- Aprons for the daredevils in evening dress
Step 4: On the big day
Place the canvas on an easel. Place the instruction cards down. That's all.
Guests see the canvas, they pick up the brush and they fill in the box(es). No painting experience necessary - the numbers make it foolproof.
The genius? While you drink champagne and shake hands, your guests create your work of art together. Do not pass around a guestbook. No shouting "don't forget to sign".
"My guests really can't paint"
If you can read the numbers 1 to 9, you can do this.
It is literally: find number 5 on the canvas, take paint jar number 5, fill in box 5. No need to cross any lines, the black lines are thick enough. Do not mix colours. No artistic choices.
Need proof? 0% failures in 3 years. Zero. Zero. None.
"Dit kost vast uren tijdens mijn bruiloft"
Gemiddelde tijd per gast: 47 seconden per vakje.
De meeste gasten krijgen 1-2 vakjes. Dus minder tijd dan een bezoekje aan het toilet. Ze doen het tijdens het aperitief, tussen de gangen door, als ze even opstaan om hun benen te strekken.
"Is het eindresultaat wel mooi?"
Look. It won't be Rembrandt. But that's the point.
It will be a painting with 100 different manuscripts. With that corner where grandpa used extra paint because "it had to be well covered".
Personal? 100%.
Valuable? Priceless.
