The Digital Guestbook That Shows Who Wrote It
Our digital guestbook in Singapore turns guest wishes into memories — every message sits right beside the guest’s photo, so you’ll always know exactly who wrote what. Traditional guestbooks are full of scribbles you can’t read and messages you can’t match to a face. As a result, our Digital Guestbook changes that.
In addition, using a professional Wacom pen tablet with a pressure-sensitive stylus, guests draw, write, and doodle alongside their event photos with precision and control that no iPad or touchscreen can match.
Furthermore, it is great entertainment for your guests. As each message is completed, it appears instantly on the big screen — guests love watching their own drawings and messages go live, and seeing what others have written. It turns the guestbook from a quiet side activity into a shared experience that the whole room enjoys.
How It Works
1. We Photograph Your Guests
Our photographer captures your guests during the event as part of your LiveStudios photography package.
2. Our Assistant Approaches Your Guests
Then, a dedicated assistant carries the portable Wacom pen tablet around the venue, approaching guests at their tables or wherever they are.
3. Guest’s Photo Appears on the Pen Display
As a result, the guest sees their photo on the pen display — ready for them to personalise.
4. Guests Draw & Write with a Professional Stylus
Using a pressure-sensitive stylus (not their finger!), guests write heartfelt messages, draw illustrations, or doodle directly alongside their photo.
5. Instant Projection, Prints & Digital Keepsake
Finally, each personalised guestbook entry is projected on screen instantly for everyone to enjoy. Guests take home a printed photocard, and hosts keep a complete digital collection of every entry.

The Origin Story
In 2007, the night before his own wedding, our founder had an idea: what if guests could write personal messages beside their event photo?
He didn’t sleep. He wrote a script, set up a pen tablet, and tested the system live — at his own wedding the very next day. While other grooms were relaxing, he was setting up and operating the first version of the Digital Guestbook.
However, that first prototype revealed a critical UX problem: guests couldn’t relate the tablet position to the screen. They’d look at the screen while writing on their lap — a completely disconnected experience. The solution was clear — guests needed to draw directly where they see, on a pen input display.
The Hardware Journey
What followed was nearly two decades of real-world testing at events:
- Phase 1 — Pen displays (Fujitsu & others): No palm rejection. Guests would touch the screen while writing, leaving horrible streaks across their messages.
- Phase 2 — Wacom Mobile Studio Pro: Finally, a perfect writing experience with professional palm rejection. But at over 2kg, it required a tripod stand — limiting portability.
- Phase 3 — Wacom MovinkPad (current): Elegant, lightweight, portable. The same professional Wacom pen experience, now light enough for an assistant to carry to every table.
As a result, each iteration solved a real problem discovered at real events. The Digital Guestbook you experience today is the result of almost 20 years of refinement — not a product designed in a lab, but one forged at weddings, galas, and celebrations.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this different from an iPad guestbook?
We use a professional Wacom pen tablet with a pressure-sensitive stylus — the same technology used by professional digital artists. Because of this, guests get precise, natural-feeling lines compared to the thick, imprecise marks from finger-drawing on an iPad.
Do guests need any artistic skill?
Not at all! Most guests write a short message and maybe draw a simple heart or smiley. The professional stylus makes even basic writing look great.
How does it work during the event?
Our dedicated assistant carries the pen tablet around the venue, approaching guests at their tables. There’s no queue and nothing stationary — we come to your guests.
Can this be used at corporate events?
Absolutely. The Digital Guestbook is popular at company anniversaries, product launches, gala dinners, team building events, conferences, and grand openings. Corporate guests love the interactive element and take home a branded photocard.
Is this a standalone service?
The Digital Guestbook is an add-on to your LiveStudios photography package. Since we’re already photographing your event, the guest photos are seamlessly integrated into the guestbook experience.
How many guests can be served in 4 hours?
This depends on event flow — during reception, dinner, and mingling time, our assistant can cover a large number of guests comfortably.
