Not long ago, Wendy found these platters from Serendipity Crafts. They're a simple and creative alternative to a traditional guest book. The plates are printed with your names and wedding date, and they come with a special pen your guests can use to sign. Like a guest book, only better, right? Unlike a guest book, a keepsake platter is something you can display and use. Our Name is Mud sells similar platters, but not just for weddings -- also birthdays and other special events. Their Congratulations platter, pictured above, is perfect for weddings and sells for a very reasonable $59.95.
