Once the materials are ready, simply put the decorations and card inside the clear capsule and snap it closed to complete.

Preparing one for each guest can be a hassle, but the process itself is really easy!

For brides who are worried about being clumsy and not being able to DIY, don't worry ♡

What I've introduced is the basic method, but for advanced DIYers, writing directly on the capsule with calligraphy can be stylish.

It's also said that some people put a transparent film printed with the guest's name inside the clear capsule.

You can print the guest's name on clear stickers, cut them out, and stick them on the capsule, too ♡

There are transparent sticker sheets available on Rakuten that you can print yourself with an inkjet printer.

Next, I will introduce ideas for performances at weddings using capsule place cards.

They are not just cute, but also make a memorable item when combined with performances ♡

Capsule Place Card Performance Idea ① Insert a Message

The first idea I would like to introduce is to place a letter inside the capsule place cards.

You can also write a handwritten message on the back of the guest's name card.

It's a chic place card message that will be revealed when the capsule is opened ♡

This bride shared that after a profile movie was shown at the reception, she distributed message cards addressed to each guest.

She then placed those cards inside the capsule place cards, allowing guests to take home a type of time capsule.

Guests also wrote their replies on the spot and handed them back, making it a lifelong treasure.

If you want responses, it might be a good idea to put blank cards and pens inside the capsule from the beginning ♡

Capsule Place Card Performance Idea ② As Escort Items

An idea for using capsule place cards as escort items.

Because there’s a part to tie ribbons or strings on the clear capsule, you can hang them like ornaments on a wedding tree or board.

Having guests search for their capsule place card with their name written on it can create excitement.

If you are going to use them as escort items, it can also be wonderful to print a photo with the guest inside the capsule.

It would be a delightful surprise ♡

Capsule Place Card Performance Idea ③ Insert Mini Gifts

It’s also fun to insert mini gifts inside the capsule place cards ♡

If you put chocolates or candies inside, it will become a cute gift place card.

You could prepare them for young guests too.

You can change the mini gifts inside the capsules based on the guests' gender or age.

Unlike handing out gifts during farewells, you can differentiate them with gift place cards, which is one of the charms.
