Guests Will Be Excited! The [Best ○○ Award] Production Looks Fun♡
I found a really fun production that I'd like to try at the reception or after-party*
It's the [Best ○○ Award] production♡
Every year, in the entertainment industry, we hold events like the Best Jeanist Award and the Best Dresser in Glasses Award at the end of the year*
It's a yearly tradition to choose and award the celebrities who look best in denim and glasses♩
Of course, holding a [Best ○○ Award] as a wedding production is exactly the same as in the entertainment industry!
The method involves selecting one guest from all the attendees who best fits the [Best ○○ Award] category and giving them a small gift♡
This production is appealing because every guest has the chance to be recognized, making everyone excited and the venue lively*
Here are some ideas for the [Best ○○ Award] category that senior brides have actually implemented in their receptions and after-parties*
① Best Design Award for RSVP Cards♡
First, we present the Best Design Award for RSVP cards*
Recently, replying with decorated RSVP cards, such as drawings, paper embroidery, or stickers, has become a trend♡
This bride awarded the Best Design Award to a guest whose RSVP card design was cute and who replied quickly♩
The winning RSVP card can be displayed somewhere for others to see, and it would be great to show it prominently on a projector during the announcement*
② Best Dresser Award for Female Guests♡
The Best Dresser Award for female guests who come wearing stylish event dresses is also wonderful*
Everyone dresses up for our wedding, and I would love to give a Best Dresser Award to all of them...
However, it’s recommended to set criteria in advance, like "guests wearing a dress completely different from their usual style" or "guests wearing a dress in the bride's favorite color," so it’s easier to decide♡
③ Best Tie Award for Male Guests♡
If there’s a Best Dresser Award for female guests, there can also be a Best Tie Award for male guests♡
Set criteria such as "guests wearing ties with unique patterns" or "guests wearing ties that match well with their suits" in advance♩
It might be nice to inform guests in the invitation, "Please wear your favorite tie*" ahead of time♡
④ Best Smile Award♡
This bride had guests take Polaroid photos at the reception and awarded the Best Smile Award to the guest with the best smile from those photos♡
This production is interesting, and having everyone’s Polaroid photos results in a memorable keepsake for the couple*
The guest chosen as the No. 1 Best Smile Award winner is sure to feel incredibly happy♩
Best Father Award & Best Mother Award
Finally, we introduce the Best Father Award and Best Mother Award production♡
Of course, the recipients are the groom’s and bride’s parents* Award them with the meaning of "Thank you for everything. You are the best parents."♩
Some brides also surprise their grandparents or other important figures in their family with the Best Father Award and Best Mother Award♡
Will Everyone Enjoy the Best ○○ Award?♡
What do you think? I introduced the popular wedding production, the [Best ○○ Award]*
Preparing a gift in the range of 2,000 to 3,000 yen for the guest chosen as the Best ○○ Award will make it even more exciting, so I recommend this♩
Why not host a guest-participation [Best ○○ Award] and enjoy a fun time together?♡
