Nostalgic...! It’s Fun to Have Guests Fill Out a 'Profile Book' Like We Did in Elementary School*

Alternative to Guest Book: Profile Book♡
This is a familiar item for anyone in the bride generation that makes you exclaim, "Nostalgic...!!" — the **Profile Book**.
A profile book contains one's name, address, hobbies, favorite foods, future dreams, and other personal details all written on a single page. I vividly remember distributing them to my entire class in elementary school to have everyone fill them out..!
I found a bride who is using this profile book instead of a guest book, and I thought it would be interesting to have every guest fill out a profile book♡
A Great Opportunity to Know Your Guests Better*
Upon reflection, during weddings, the profiles of the bride and groom are shared in the seating chart or through videos for guests to learn about, but the guests' profiles are hardly introduced. (Which is understandable..!)
While we may receive messages or ask guests to write their names and addresses in a guest book, we don't usually inquire about detailed information about the guests themselves, do we?
Since the profile book prompts guests to fill out their profiles according to specific sections, it seems like a great opportunity to know guests better and deepen bonds during the wedding.
After the wedding, looking at the profile book might reveal new sides of guests such as "Oh, so **〇〇-chan** has a hobby of photography!" or "His uncle likes sake, so maybe I should bring some sake as a gift next time I visit♩," making it useful for future interactions*
It Might Be Fun to Create Your Own Profile Book!
While there are many profile books still available for sale, the designs tend to be geared towards elementary school girls. The questions might include "What is your favorite subject?" "Who is your favorite teacher?" and "Have you ever confessed your feelings to someone?", which might be hard for adults to answer...!
