Minimalist Elegance: Consider Using Profile Cards Instead of Programs for the Family Meeting!

Family Meeting Doesn't Have to Be a Brochure*
When it comes to the items prepared by the bride and groom's side for the family meeting, a brochure is representative.
① Greetings
② Flow of the Family Meeting
③ Food & Drink Menu
④ Profiles & How We Met
⑤ Family Introductions & Childhood Photos
⑥ About the Wedding
⑦ About the New Home
⑧ Contact Information of Both Families
⑩ Final Greetings
It's common to create a brochure full of information and hand it over to both families.
However, some brides are preparing an item instead of a family meeting brochure♩
That item is a Profile Card.
The profile card is used as a substitute for place cards or profile books during the reception.
It’s a paper item where the bride and groom's photographs and self-introductions are printed on postcards and bundled together.
It’s common to place them on the seats in an envelope or tied together with ribbons or clips,
and it’s easy to create since they are individual cards, making them stylish like a shop catalog ♡
Preparing profile cards as a substitute for the family meeting brochure seems to be a good idea♩
Since having too many cards could lead to them getting scattered, it’s recommended to have 5 to 6 cards in one set.
<Recommended Contents are as Follows>
1st Card: Cover
2nd Card: Introduction of the Bride and Groom
3rd Card: Family Introduction
4th Card: Childhood Photos, etc.
5th Card: About the Wedding and New Home
The content can be light and contain only the essential information♩
Greetings and menus can be decided by the couple, but they can be omitted for profile cards.
It seems great to focus on aesthetics and create a design that family members will enjoy and appreciate♡
Card Instead of a Family Meeting Brochure Might Become Trendy
The booklet-style family meeting brochures often end up looking very traditional and may not appear stylish.
With profile cards made from postcards, it seems easy to combine colors, layouts, texts, and fonts to create chic DIY designs♩
In the future, “Family Meeting Profile Cards” could become as popular as family meeting brochures.
