My Adesso Polaroid Guest Book


I don't remember where I or how I found out about the Adesso Polaroid guest book, but when I saw it, I knew it needed to use it for ALL of our upcoming wedding events.

I ordered the book and then I ordered the polaroid camera (blue to match our wedding colors) and then I ordered all of the film which cost more than the book AND the camera. 

They all arrived quickly, the guest book arriving the fastest. They have a useful thing on their website which lets you enter the date by which you need the book just so they can make sure they get it to you before your event. 

I took it too our co-ed wedding shower and we all had a blast taking pictures! Here are some of our results...

 My cousin & his girlfriend are awesome!

My friends have no problem goofing off in front of the camera and capturing their personalities in writing AND on film...

ken & kristina!

and the picture taking fun continued well into the night...

raina & sean

and finally we had to comemorate our new family of SIX with a fabulous polaroid...

just the 6 of us.


I'd say the guest book was a hit! We all had fun with it. Since I'm a photographer I had fun taking the pictures and since my friends are all such hams they had fun posing. I also emailed them to people as "thank yous" for coming to our party and people seemed really appreciative of that. 

My cousin Dana bought us another Adesso album for our wedding and I can't wait to let the picture taking fun continue!! 

I'm just so pissed that Polaroid stopped making film!!! Why would they do that!? Click here to sign the online petition to SAVE POLAROID FILM! And then go over to www.savepolaroid.com to see what else you can do.

I know this is an old post but I ran into it and thought you would like to hear some good news. Adesso Albums just released a new photo book album for Fuji Instax 200 camera. The Fuji Instax is the same exact concept as the Polaroid. The pictures come out instantly from the camera and develop right in front of you. The only difference is the picture size. The Fuji is longer in width than height. Here is the link to the Adesso Wesbsite..
