Wedding Ceremony in Japan

I am going to talk about Wedding Ceremony in Japan.
I haven’t attended wedding ceremony until now because, but I am very curious wedding ceremony and it is one of my dream in my life!

In Japan, we call wedding ceremony “Hirouen”.
Usually, a bride and groom invite thire family and friends.
They can choose the place from hole for wedding ceremony, restaurant or hotel.
My parents had a wedding ceremony in the hotel.


The bride and groom can choose white dress or Kimono, also they can wear both if they want. My parents wore both.I also want to wear both of them because many people wear both.

If you are invited wedding ceremony, you have to give money for the bride and groom.
This is Japanese tradition.People usually give about 30,000yen (about $300)

In ceremony,
First, the bride and groom enter the ceremony room after the guests sit their seat.
The bride and groom can choose the back ground music.
They usually use Lohengrin which is made by Wagener.
During they are entering to the ceremony room, the guests clapping their hands.

Secondly, a master of ceremonies introduce the bride and groom, their family their history and so on. Then, all people toast for them. After that, the bride and groom cut a big cake together. It is the biggest event in wedding ceremony.
After they cut cake, they give a morsel of cake each other.

Thirdly, the bride and groom change another dress.
They usually change to color dress. While they are changing, the master of ceremonies read letters from their friends who cannot come to their wedding ceremony.

Then, their friends entertain in the ceremony.
They sing songs, dance, whatever they do for the ceremony.
Finally, the bride and groom have a speech for their parents.

It is wedding ceremony in Japan. I hope that I will have in the future!
