how to avoid wedding guests taking disposable cameras
I did a search for this but I didn't turn up anything so I apologize if I am repeating.
I'd like to put out a few disposable cameras at the wedding reception for guests to take pictures. However, I have been told by a few fellow brides that they haven't gotten theirs back! Guests thought they were favors for them to take pictures for themselves. We are doing a favor, so the cameras won't be the only things on the tables. I would assume guests would realize the cameras were not the favors but it seems as though that is not always the case. I am having 10 to 12 tables that seat 8 each. I was thinking I would put a camera at every other table. How can I avoid guests taking the cameras home? Someone suggested a small note card attached to the camera with instructions but I am unsure how to word it, or if this is even a good idea.
Thanks for your input!

Don't sweat the small details. If the guests comply, great. if they take the cameras home - oh well. But here is a little poem you can print and attach to the cameras. of course, there's no telling who will or wont read the note.
This is a disposable wedding camera Please use it a lot, To take pictures of What the photographer might not.
At the end of the evening With all film exposed, Return to (insert your person of choice), Who'll develop the photos.
