Retirement Guestbook

Yes! Each guestbook cover is custom printed, so colours, wording and event details are changed to suit your special event perfectly. 

One of the design team will incorporate the details you supply, tweaking the design to incorporate the details you supply and any colour changes. An electronic draft mockup will be sent to you before printing.

Don’t fret if your favourite guest book design mentions a wedding and you want it for a different type of event – we modify each cover to suit you and your specific event.

Our guestbook pages are either our Mini size (A5, 210mm long x 148mm high) with 20 sheets or 50 sheets, or Regular (A4, 297mm long x 210mm high) with 20, 30 or 50 sheets.

The Regular size is the most popular option for weddings, birthdays, memorials and retirement guest books. The Mini size is most popular for baby showers, hen’s nights and more intimate-sized events.

The best size and number of pages will depend on the number of guests you have attending, and whether you are getting them to stick polaroid photos in with their messages. If you’ve got advice cards for guests to fill out, you might want room for those to be stuck in too.

We recommending going for more pages, if in doubt. You can always add in greeting cards, menus and other mementoes from your event if you end up with spare pages afterwards.

Our guestbooks are professional printed with a protective plastic sheet protecting the 300gsm card cover. Inside you’ll find 200gsm card in your choice of lined, unlined, or black pages.

Order a Cover Card Sample Pack to explore the card options for yourself. 

The wire binding allows the pages to lay flat, which makes it easier for guests to write messages and attach polaroid pictures throughout your guestbook.

Yes – you’ll receive an electronic draft mockup of your personalised guest book cover before it goes to print – so you can see how everything looks, and request any changes or tweaks. Up to two rounds of revisions are included.

Allow one week for your custom guestbook. This time encompasses the design process, any revisions you request and printing.

If you’re short on time, we also offer an urgent/24-hour turnaround service for an additional charge.

Choosing the right pen may seem like a small detail, but it can make a big impact on the final look and feel of your guestbook.
