Description A newly wed couple circling Himeji castle.

Can you imagine how expensive a wedding like this would be?

Looking at this photo most people would think it's a historical re-enactment, but it's not an unusual scene over there even now. I love Japan <3

Last year in Tokyo I saw a wedding where the bride was wearing one of those uber-traditional 10 layer kimonos. It was 30 C out. I felt like melting just looking at her.

I love how in weddings everyone is black while only the bride is dressed up white like a goddess. But they move solemnly like its a funeral

Ok, I guess for me it's been the opposite. Only an uncle and auntie divorce in my family.

In TRUE JAPANESE FASHION! 0-0

Well it would be insanely expensive, but the Japanses are one of the heavist shoppers in the world so what else is new?
I'm more concerned about how well the marraige will last... that's the important thing, if you ask me

somehow I guessed that was Himeji before seeing your description.

Beautiful shot. Did you get to catch more of the ceremony?

Nah, I was just lucky to see them being carted about on the rickshaw as I left the castle grounds.
