However, thinking about the future, there might be an unexpected pitfall...!

But.

While this acrylic marriage certificate is so cute now, there might be unexpected pitfalls when viewed from a long-term perspective...!

That is...

"Acrylic frames may yellow over time."

@chao.wedding

The yellowing of acrylic frames seems to be caused by two main factors.

One is a chemical reaction due to additives.

The additives used during the manufacturing of acrylic sheets can react chemically and cause discoloration.

(It seems that high-purity acrylic has a lower chance of discoloration over time.)

Also, there may be cases where what you thought was acrylic is actually plastic or silicone...

Silicone and plastic (think of the plastic cups or toys you have at home) often discolor over time.

So, for those who want to admire their marriage certificate in beautiful condition even when they're grandparents, choosing a 【glass marriage certificate】 instead of acrylic brings peace of mind!＊

Glass marriage certificates do not discolor, fade, or yellow, and remain shiny no matter how many years go by.

Alternatively, you need to choose a high-purity, sturdy acrylic that is more expensive than plastic and other materials.*

Be sure to read the product descriptions from each shop and brand thoroughly before purchasing!

It's clear now, but beware of yellowing!

Recently popular clear items.

Items like pressed flower reception signs and welcome boards are very cute and stylish, but

it's better to keep in mind that "using low-purity, cheap acrylic may lead to yellowing."

Especially for items like marriage certificates that you want to keep for a lifetime.

Please make decisions regarding your wedding that you won't regret later!＊
