A marriage certificate that, once submitted, will never come back....
The moment you write and submit the marriage certificate is so exciting and happy.
Just looking at the pristine, blank marriage certificate you just received makes you feel joyous.
Make sure to take all the photos you want before submission ♩
The marriage certificate is an incredibly precious item, like a treasure, and once submitted, it will never come back.
Therefore, it's customary to take commemorative photos before submitting! While it was common in the past to take pictures in front of the city hall, nowadays, there are many stylish and heartwarming ways to take and preserve photos related to the marriage certificate!
Here are some adorable and heartwarming photo ideas to capture with the marriage certificate before registering!*
Photos to take before submission! Commemorative photo with the marriage certificate ① with rings
The first photo to take is this one* A standard photo often seen on Instagram: "placing rings on the marriage certificate" photo♡
For brides with both engagement and wedding rings, it's common to place one ring on each of the three characters of the marriage certificate*
Placing your fiancé's wedding ring, which is a bit larger, in the face area, creating a hidden Mickey with the three rings is also a cute idea♩
Don't worry if you don't have an engagement ring... You can still take beautiful photos with just two rings!♡
Photos to take before submission! Commemorative photo ② of him filling out the form
One photo that makes you smile while scrolling through pre-bride posts on Instagram is
the photo of “my boyfriend filling out the marriage certificate”!
Seeing them seriously and carefully writing word by word to avoid mistakes conveys how much they value your marriage, and it feels very loving.
Once you submit the marriage certificate, he will no longer just be your boyfriend but your husband! Make sure to commemorate this final image of your "boyfriend" properly♩

Some people think of marriage and registration as "just a piece of paper, right?" but think about it carefully!
A marriage certificate is the "happiest piece of paper in the world" that connects you with your most beloved person♡♡♡
To prove that marriage is not just a matter between two people, the marriage certificate has a guarantor section that requires someone else to fill in, requiring the marriage to be acknowledged.
I believe there’s no happier piece of paper filled with the thoughts of so many people aside from just you two.
And once you submit that paper (the marriage certificate), it becomes a precious item you will never see or touch again.
Let’s capture the happy moment that transforms the simple marriage certificate into the happiest piece of paper in the world for the two of you! ♡
