It will change your life greatly
The fact that it is something important

After getting to know the couple and their guests,
Attending a wedding or not
The scenery you see will surely change dramatically.

Feeling fondly towards the other person
Once again, I realize what is important

it is
Know the other person Know the parents' thoughts
Recognize your feelings and share them with your valued guests.

It all starts with knowing

That's why

The letter describes how the two of them met and the meaning behind their wedding.
It was written that everyone here is important to the two of them.

Groom's entrance
I've been involved in a lot of happy times up until now.
Even after the groom has walked down the aisle
I have never before experienced such a great applause that seemed never to stop.
That alone shows how much the couple is loved by all the guests.
I remember being very moved at that moment.

During the introduction meeting, she conveyed to me in tears.
"I want to walk you down the aisle."
The father told the bride

Dad’s thoughts
At the turning point when my daughter became independent
Because I think it’s an important time.
The steps may be short,
Until the moment I hand the bride over to the groom
Savor every step as you savor the feeling
I want to enjoy walking
The father who taught me

For parents too, weddings are a turning point in raising children.
A request from the father of the bride

"My precious and beloved Mayu-chan
I want to walk down the aisle."

I want parents and everyone to know

So the vows are to each other

Reminiscing on the happy memories
The guests who received the written sentiments

- Guest Interview -

We have set aside time to discuss the couple in attendance.

"I'd like to meet people from my company," said the bride's mother.
My daughter thought she couldn't live without me, her mother said.
Before you know it, the bride will be embarking on a journey into the unknown and growing.

Now, I remember the bride who doesn't even look back when I say "bye" until she's out of sight.
A proud mother

The bride's important person that the bride talks about a lot
"That's how I was encouraged."
"There's a senior like this?" I always thought to myself when I heard such a story.
I want to thank everyone who has been involved with my daughter.
Thank you for meeting me, being involved with me, and nurturing me into the bride's life.

So I want to take this opportunity to find out what kind of people my daughter has met.
I want to directly say "Thank you"

Through guest interviews, we learn about the people they met and the path they took in life.
It became an opportunity to be recognized.

Second half of the reception

The couple dressed in traditional Japanese wedding attire, "montsuki" and "shiromuku"
The couple who appeared
The pattern is a peony flower basket. Peony flowers bloom large and are very elegant.
The flower's meaning is "humility and shyness." We have prepared a pattern that reflects the bride's shy, adorable smile and her kindness towards her family.

In the second half, cherish the time you spend with everyone.

To tell everyone I love that I love them

I enjoyed the time with everyone during the conversation period.

Before the bride's letter, we received a message from her parents.

At a wedding, the couple has plenty of time to express their gratitude to their parents.
But the time that parents have spent caring for their children
What words would you like to convey to the couple in the future?
How much time do you have to express your feelings?

Their mother and father were their allies more than anyone else.

Feelings that can only be conveyed at a wedding
It was delivered to the two of you

Message from the staff

Dress Coordinator

The bride's clarity and her sweet, shy smile are beautiful, yet she has an elegant presence.
The moment we met, I felt that I wanted to suggest a dress that would suit Mayuko as she is now, not one that was too expensive.
We would love to hear all about how the two of you met and about your families.
I thought they really valued [people].
Among other things, they cherished their parents very much, and it was evident from our meetings that they were loved by them as well. We made suggestions for the wedding arrangements, considering the opinions and reactions of their parents.
As I mentioned in the text of the Shiromuku wedding, the key point was the coordination created with the precious family, and as the person in charge, I also valued it.

Photographer

Regarding the photoshoot: Naturally, we will capture images of the two of you.
It is important to capture the view from the couple's point of view.
On the day of the event, you may find that time passes quickly as you enjoy yourselves.
Memories of that time when I had fun and cried
I try to take photos that you can remember by looking at them.

This time, we asked the planner about the couple.
I really felt the love I received from my parents.
I wanted to express the love of the couple who were loved so much in photographs.
I took a photo of it.
Adjust the distance with guests to capture more heartwarming photos.
I took the photo with great care.

We took numerous photos to capture the parents' expressions, honoring the couple's heartfelt wish to bring joy to their parents.
