Features of profile movies that might make guests cringe!? ① Childhood reminiscing is too long

Photos of the groom and bride from their childhood are very precious memories for family. Although they will surely enjoy reflecting on their childhood, for colleagues and acquaintances from adulthood, it can seem like "I can't tell the difference even if you look back on each year" or "I’m not interested since I'm not a childhood friend."

Many people think that having at least 5 photos from birth, kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, and high school is sufficient. Be careful not to make it too long!*

You might want to use a lot of photos with very close friends or childhood friends in the profile movie. However, for other guests, this can create a sense of being left out or feeling lonely.

Even if your inner circle is having a great time, it doesn’t mean it’s meaningful if the other guests are not enjoying it. Be mindful to ensure that no guest appears multiple times while others do not appear at all.
