So, this time, I will introduce the benefits of microphone decoration and some design ideas for micro flower arrangements!

First, let's check how many microphones will be used at the reception♡

There are several microphones for different purposes such as for the MC, guest speeches, bride and groom, and entertainment. Therefore, don't forget to check in advance with the venue staff whether you can change the decoration for each microphone or if it's better to create decorations for all of them!♡

The charm of decorating a microphone ① Makes the speaker's hands look festive during speeches＊

During the reception, there are plenty of opportunities to hold a microphone for speeches, starting with the welcome speech from the couple, to the boss's congratulatory speech, the toast, the bride's letter, and the groom's acknowledgments.

Naturally, during the speech, the guests' eyes will be drawn to the person's face and hands holding the microphone. If the microphone is beautifully decorated with flowers and ribbons, it will look very festive and will photograph well♡

Often, people use the venue's services for microphone decoration, which usually costs around 5000 yen. However, if you handcraft it yourself as part of your wedding DIY, you can keep the costs even lower!＊

Also, there's no need to be overly particular about the design of the microphone decoration! You can simply attach leftover flowers and ribbons from other DIY projects, making it easy to DIY as well♡
