At convenience stores, there's a service that allows you to print newspapers from past dates (back issues) 【Birthday Newspaper】.

As an item to spark old stories like "This is what happened when ◯◯ was born," it's especially popular to be placed in the family waiting room at weddings♡

(Recently, some people have even been ordering “birthday newspapers of their favorite celebrities” to celebrate and cherish!)

In this article, we'll introduce the usage and arrangement of birthday newspapers for pre-brides who are starting wedding preparations♩

Variations of Birthday Newspaper Usage

【1】

The most popular style is placing one to several copies on a table in the family waiting room.

It's necessary to provide an explanation so that it's clear, "This is the newspaper from the day ◯◯ was born♡"

【2】

Not just for family; placing them in the reception space or welcome area for guests will surely make it enjoyable for them as well♩

【3】

There's also the idea of putting them on the wall＊

【4】

You can turn it into a puzzle, so an idea is to have all the guests (especially those family members who gathered quickly in the family waiting room) complete it together♡

Instead of a birthday newspaper, you could also use a newspaper from the day of your marriage registration or the day you first met＊

Birthday Newspaper Wrapping Arrangements♡

Simply placing or handing the birthday newspaper as is can feel a bit bland, so it's also common to wrap it in a wedding-like manner or in your preferred style.

For example.....

【1】

Put it in a pocket-type bag

【2】

Wrap it with a band

【3】

Print a photo from when you were a baby

【4】

Twist it with a ribbon to give it an international newspaper style

Such ideas are stylish♡

Surely, it's a newspaper that you will be seeing for the first time.

The news from the day you were born is something you probably haven't seen yourself, making it fresh and new.

For family, it brings back memories, leading to conversations like, "Wow, there was news like this, right? How nostalgic. It was just on the hospital TV at the time."

Or they might say, "There were many news stories on this day, but none of them were a big deal compared to ◯◯ being born. That’s the biggest news ever!”

Just imagining this makes me think weddings are wonderful♡

The birthday newspaper can print back issues from six newspapers: Asahi Shimbun, Yomiuri Shimbun, Mainichi Shimbun, Nikkei, Okinawa Times, and The Japan Times♩

Not just for birthdays, but collecting newspapers for other anniversaries like the day you started dating or the day you met would become treasures, and I think it would be great to try!♡
