REAL STORY

Wedding is not the goal.
It was the beginning of a family.

4 years after wedding

Did the two of you have a theme for the wedding or something you want it to look like?

wife

We were talking about whether it would be better to make it possible for people who came to enjoy themselves and go home. The day of the wedding was Christmas Eve, so I thought it would be nice to have them come to a Christmas party. We don't just play the leading role, so that the guests can enjoy themselves properly.

Husband

There was a concept that we wanted to create a place where we could convey to the people who had helped us in many ways that we had come this far, and that we wanted to have a ceremony that would entertain those people.

I heard that you have this picture hanging in your home.

wife

Yes, I have this photo hanging at the front door of my house. The forecast was for rain on the day of the wedding. But it gradually cleared up around the time this photo was taken. I could see the sunshine, so I thought I was able to take a good picture. I like this photo because I thought it was just a stroke of luck.

A letter has arrived from the wedding planner who made the wedding together.

I'm really happy to be able to have a relationship like this many times. I am filled with gratitude that you come back to Plan・Do・See every year and that you come to see me in Kobe. I will continue to pray for the happiness of you and your family. ”

Do you remember the meeting leading up to the wedding day?

Husband

It left an impression on me that I listened carefully and made a plan. I think it's well planned that I'm going to have this kind of awareness for the purpose. We hadn't even thought about it that far yet, so it feels like he guided us.

wife

I really like the atmosphere of the bridal salon, and I'm looking forward to being able to talk about weddings in that space every time. It was also a bit boring. I was happy with that meeting. That is also a good memory.

How did the two of you feel about the actual wedding?

wife

I'm glad I did.

Husband

But at that moment, time passed too quickly, and I didn't have the time to say, "Oh, I'm having a wedding." On the day of the event, all the guests said they would go to the second party after the reception, and when we met up there, I heard about their impressions of the wedding and thought, "I hope you had a good time." I felt it.

wife

I simply had a lot of fun. I knew that my loved ones were having a great time, so I was really happy. Since it was the end of the year, almost everyone wrote in the New Year's cards that arrived after the wedding that the wedding was so good.

If you had a parallel life with the two who had a wedding and the two who didn't have a wedding, would the future of the two of you be different?

Husband

I don't think so. I had my wedding here, and I'm here for dinner for our anniversary, so I look back on the story each time. Without it, memories would fade. I feel that it is a good place to be given a good opportunity to remember every year.

wife

That's not what it means, if you don't have a wedding.

What were your thoughts after the ceremony?

wife

After the wedding ceremony, I was invited to one of my friends' weddings, and it was actually Conder House (Nagoya store directly managed by Plan・Do・See). it was fun. When I attended the Condor House, it was a wedding during the corona crisis, and it was the only wedding I attended after my own wedding, but I thought, "It's really fun to get everyone together." seeds. I wore a mask to attend the ceremony, but I really like fashion, so that day I went to the hairdresser and asked for a haircut. I made it to a party, and my friends were dressed very nicely, and the guests were all dressed very gorgeously.

You can't call it something other than a wedding, right? You don't bother to gather from afar, do you? I was very happy when I was asked, "Can you come to the wedding even though it's a corona disaster?" I think he probably took great care of me and invited me. Anyway, I'm happy that you asked me to invite you. isI have very good memories of that wedding, and I know how you feel about preparing for it.That's why I've decided that I'm going to dress absolutely beautiful. I think it's polite. I'm happy to be able to participate with that kind of feeling, and I'm happy that so many people like that gather. I think it's really wonderful that there is a beautiful venue, delicious food, and the same experience in the same place.It was precisely because I had a wedding myself that I started to want to be invited more. I wish everyone had more weddings.

I heard that it was a letter from you that triggered the reading of each other's letters on each anniversary.

Husband

After the wedding, I participated in a workshop called "How to create the best family". At that time, I was not in the habit of writing a letter, but I was asked, "Why don't you try writing a letter?" ,happyis not it. If so, I would like to try it more and more for the other party, so I'm doing my best to write it.

wife

That workshop was fun, wasn't it? It was great fun. First of all, I am happy that I was able to come to the venue. At that time, there was a document I used in the workshop on the bookshelf at home, and when I saw it for some reason, I went "Wow!". It's like a time capsule. That's what I was thinking at the time. But on the other hand, I don't feel that different from now.
What I thought at the workshop on how to create the best family is that weddings are often expressed as a goal, but it was a perfect start, and I still strongly believe that. increase. Like that was the start. family startedThat's what I thought.
This is an important place in the sense that the family startedI think. There was a work called "What kind of family do you want to be in 3 years, 5 years?" That's exactly what it was. I think it was the two of us who said, ``It's going as expected.''
ancestorIn that sense, December 2017 is the starting point for us, and that is where we start.and. Every year on our wedding anniversary, we have dinner, take pictures, and hang the pictures in the hallway of our house. I have four now. That's why I want to keep doing it. I think that it was the start at first when I thought that I wanted to engrave such things like an archive. As a start, there is the first photo I talked about today.

Family photos are pasted in the hallway of the house, and it becomes like the trajectory of the family.

wife

That's right. That's why I want this place to continue to be a wonderful place.

lastly. The two of you have already taken a step forward as a new family.

wife

I am really looking forward to having a healthy baby. Good luck with your brother. If you were born in November, you are that kind of person. If you are born in December, you will become Koyuki. Which one will it be? What name will it be? I'm so happy that I captured this two weeks before he was born. I'm deeply moved.

Husband

It would be nice if I could do something here again after the baby was born safely. Let's do it again at Kawabun at the beginning of eating.
