A Comprehensive Guide to What to Include in Your Profile Book for the Reception: From Self-Introductions to DIY Creations ♡

I want to create a stylish, cute, and playful 【Profile Book】!

A 【Profile Book】 is a paper item that compiles the couple's self-introduction, how they met, greetings, and seating chart to share with guests♡ It's a very popular item these days as it provides entertainment for guests during waiting times before the reception or during outfit changes♡

So, creating a 【Profile Book】 with high satisfaction for both the couple and guests is definitely a must-have paper item♡ However, what kind of content should be included in a 【Profile Book】...? Many prospective brides and grooms might be wondering this as well＊

This time, for such couples, we've compiled a list of content items you'd want to include in your 【Profile Book】♩

Content you should include in your 【Profile Book】①: 'Greetings'

Include a greeting message at the cover or the beginning of the pages, such as "Thank you for coming today," to express your gratitude♡ While somewhat referencing fixed phrases, we hope you convey your appreciation to the guests in your own words♩

Content you should include in your 【Profile Book】②: 'Self-introduction of the couple'

Since this is a 【Profile Book】, including profiles of the bride and groom is essential◎ If there are no mutual friends, it might be the first time for each other's partner to meet at the reception＊ In such cases, you definitely want to know your spouse's profile♩

The profiles of the couple are popular when presented in a questionnaire or Q&A format◎ Besides basic items, creating a few playful ones will make the guests enjoy it even more♡

Content you should include in your 【Profile Book】③: 'Seating chart'

While it’s fine to create a separate seating chart, compiling it in the 【Profile Book】 is a smart way to go♡ If you’re creating a 【Profile Book】, it’s best to minimize the number of paper items so that guests can easily take it home & it also helps save costs♩

Content you should include in your 【Profile Book】④: 'Menu'

A menu for the food is sufficient, but many couples also include a drinks menu to avoid the hassle of passing it around at the tables＊ Please consider the space available while doing so♩

Content you should include in your 【Profile Book】⑤: 'Introductions of DIY items and key points from the ceremony/reception'

After all the hard work putting everything together for the ceremony, we hope you convey your efforts to the guests in a visible way♡ By sharing the couple's unique touches and sentiments, it will make for a more meaningful ceremony for the guests♩

When introducing DIY items, it’s easy to understand if you include photos with simple explanations next to or below them♩ This way, even small items and decorations that guests might overlook can be covered perfectly♡

Content you should include in your 【Profile Book】⑥: 'Photos'

The 【Profile Book】 is a great opportunity to reveal pre-wedding photos to the guests＊ If the couple's ceremony and reception are on different days, include ceremony photos to share what the event was like♩ It's lovely to mix in photos of your everyday life along with photos from your special day♡

Content you should include in your 【Profile Book】⑦: 'The couple's love story'

The 'couple's love story' is a board that presents important dates such as when you met, when you fell in love, and the day you were proposed to in chronological order for the guests＊ If the couple hasn't prepared this for the welcome area, they should share it in the 【Profile Book】 instead♩

Unlike a board, the 【Profile Book】 allows for more detailed writing, which is one of its advantages＊ It's a great opportunity to inform guests not only about the dates but also about the couple's love story in detail◎

Content you should include in your 【Profile Book】⑧: 'Announcement of new home or special thanks'

Instead of sending a postcard to announce your new home, you can conveniently include it in your 【Profile Book】♩ Additionally, the 'special thanks' page is to express gratitude to those who helped with the shoot, speeches, and planning, such as guests and planners who were particularly helpful in making the ceremony happen♡

Content you should include in your 【Profile Book】⑨: 'Others'

There are no strict rules for a 【Profile Book】, so you can utilize your wonderful ideas♡ For instance, this couple has included a dialogue between themselves♩ The high-quality format looks like a real magazine interview, captivating the guests' attention while they read♡

If you’re a gourmet couple, creating a gourmet section to introduce your favorite restaurants could be interesting♩ It would be kind to include recommended restaurants and sightseeing spots around the venue for guests coming from afar who might want to do some sightseeing as well♡

Utilize your ideas to create a one-of-a-kind special 【Profile Book】♩

With greetings, self-introductions, and photos... Even just the items we have introduced here contain a lot of content you would want to include＊ The great part of a 【Profile Book】 is that you can compile all of this abundant content into one book♩ Of course, there are no strict rules that the 【Profile Book】 must contain this or that, so we encourage you to use these ideas as a reference to create a special, one-of-a-kind 【Profile Book】 for yourselves♩
