Air Your Dirty Laundry…
Melangerie has done it again! This was done in lieu of a traditional guestbook for a wedding. I think it would be a fun idea for an engagement party so you could also have a traditional guestbook. I myself had a polaroid giftbook as well as a Guestbook Store guestbook and it was a bit much to ask of our guests in the same day. Luckily, we have awesome friends who did both for us! Just had to share another awesome original idea from Melangerie NYC!
LINDSEY & BRAD’S DIRTY LAUNDRY
This alternative wedding guest book encouraged guests to “air out” the
bride and groom’s dirty laundry.
Instructions inscribed on a detergent bottle prompted guests to write
funny stories about Lindsey & Brad on cards shaped like shirts, pants,
socks, etc. Guests then clipped the cards to the “clothesline,” which
was strung at the reception entryway.
Melangerie is currently in the process of designing a memory book with these
cards so notes from Lindsey & Brad’s guests will never fade away.

Love this idea simply because it has mine and my fiance’s name- and spelled the same!

Hi Jennifer- planning is coming along great! I finally got to meet Andrea at Pacifica Del Mar (I had only met Amber so far) and she is incredible helpful! It sounds like Pacifica is going to be very accommodating for all our special requests- so I can’t wait to work with them more. Also- I had a chance to meet with Alyta as well- of course her and her work are amazing! Thanks again for sharing all your vendors with me!

Hi Lindsey! YAY! I am so glad to hear the planning is going well. Planning a wedding is seriously like a second job! I worked closly with Andrea and she really accomodated all of my requests and was super helpful. They will truly make sure everything goes as planned. Dont forget to also give Andrea a basic timeline of events and whoever the head server/manager on duty is will also do their best to assure that aveything happens as planned! Keep me posted!

Love, love this idea. And so cute! I did a nice photo guest book – http://www.blueskypapers.com/ – and it turned out great but this would have been super cute and fun too!
