-Wedding Report-
What signals the beginning of a special moment is
A beautiful location in Higashiyama, which could be called a prime spot in Kyoto.
"The Sodoh Higashiyama Kyoto" stands in that prime location.
The two of them were chosen on this day
Enjoy a magnificent view of the five-story pagoda, a symbol of the ancient capital of Kyoto.
This is the wedding reception venue, "THE PAGODA".
The theme of their wedding was "Love Letter."
Not just gathering together to spend time together
Expressing precious, invisible feelings in "words" and sharing them with each other.
The hearts of the couple and their guests deeply intertwined.
A warmth spreading deep within my chest
This marks the beginning of a special time.
- Welcome Party -
The guests are happily holding what
The two of you have carefully prepared everything.
Profile book
As I flip through this book, which contains everything I've done so far...
We reminisced about old times and took pictures of each other.
The waiting area is quickly filled with warm smiles.
In the midst of all this, expressing one's feelings
Because you two are the most important people to each other
They came out to welcome their guests themselves.
First, take some time to directly say "Thank you for coming."
It was given top priority.
The guests warmly surrounded the couple as they appeared in the waiting area.
With the gifts that the two of you have prepared in hand
In a relaxed space where laughter can be heard from all directions
Perfect for the special day that is about to begin.
The hearts of our guests
It was a moment that brought us much closer.
-Wedding Reception-
The moment the doors to the reception hall opened...
What caught the guests' eye was
In contrast to the vibrant red color scheme of the waiting room
A high-quality space adorned with lush greenery.
The gentle and dignified presence of the two of you
It's as if it were expressed exactly as it is.
Sophisticated coordination
Guests who stepped inside
A delightful cheer spontaneously erupts.
After the toast, the two of them each took a beer.
A lively moment as guests freely circulate amongst their tables.
We exchanged drinks, pouring each other's drinks.
The words "Congratulations" and "Thank you"
A heartfelt speech given by a dear friend
The temperature in the venue will rise even further.
- Switching Letter -
We await the appearance of the two in their new attire.
A time when you feel a little restless and your heart swells with excitement.
What was prepared for everyone was
"Switching Letter Ceremony"
The two of them addressed their respective guests.
A sincere letter filled with gratitude and love for everything that has happened.
The only sound that could be heard inside the venue was the quiet rustling of pages.
The feelings that overflow from your handwriting
It will gently melt into your hearts.
The screening took place amidst such a warm and lingering feeling.
Profile video
Looking back on the time we've spent together
Through words, the hearts of the two of you and everyone else will be deeply connected.
It's a time when my heart feels full.
-Ceremony-
Not a formal wedding
We want to express our feelings to each other in a way that is true to ourselves.
With such discerning tastes in mind, the two of them chose
It was a "ceremonial wedding held within the reception."
I will unveil my new look in front of everyone who has gathered.
It starts with "First Meet"
Then, they read aloud the "love letters" they had written to each other.
A voice that weaves together honest feelings that are usually difficult to express.
Everyone listens quietly.
Sometimes tears fall
Sometimes, those words bring on a lovely smile.
The emotions of the two of them and everyone else are also pleasantly fluctuating.
Cherish your words and feelings
It was only possible because of the kind of people they are.
The whole venue was slowly filled with emotion.
It became a vow filled with love.
- Closing -
The party concluded with everyone singing "One More Cheers!"
While enveloped in that gentle afterglow
"Answer letters" quietly written by our guests.
To our valued guests
I want to express my gratitude until the very end.
May many smiles reach the two of them.
A heartfelt "answer letter" will be delivered.
From beginning to end, words expressing mutual affection
A day filled with beautiful resonance.
Each and every word woven here is
To the future you two will walk together from now on
I will continue to gently stay by your side.
