The couple had a "Things We Want to Do Together" list since they started dating and updated it whenever they thought of something.

So, they included a card titled "My Recommendation" with their invitations, asking guests to share their recommended activities or places.

Guests returned recommendations that reflected their personalities! ♡

Not only did this increase the couple's future life enjoyment, but it also sparked interactions with guests like, “I went to that place you told me about!”

Here's another idea that involves guests in the reception! ♡

It’s popular for guests to write messages to the couple and have them collect the messages during table rounds...

However, this couple had guests write letters addressed to themselves or their families.

The collected letters will be delivered to each guest by the couple seven years later!

It’s like time-traveling mail delivery! ♡

It truly conveys the couple’s affection for their guests! ♡

If such a cake appears, it’s only natural to look for your own name on a macaron! ♡
