Default How to Hang Wedding Guest Book Quilt

The Wedding Guest Book Quilt has been quilted (finally!) and now it's time to add the label, binding and hanging sleeve. I'm using dark purple (Kona) fabric for binding. I've never made a wall hanging quilt before and want to see what options you guys think would work the best for this quilt. I watched a video for adding corner triangles sleeves and then using a wooden dowel inserted into the triangles. This seems to work for a small wall hangings but not sure how it would work for my quilt. My Longarm quilter said she just adds a long sleeve all the way across (take an 8" piece of fabric and fold in half) sewn under the binding then inserts a rod that can be hung somehow!

Do you guys have any recommendations or ideas for the best way to hang this quilt? I really value your input and look forward to what you guys have to say!

I've attached a photo of of the front and back of the quilt top.

The finished quilt top size is 59" X 76"
The Quilt weighs 2.6 pounds

Thanks so much for all your help.
