Typical Japanese wedding and japan wedding culture. Japanese weddings consist of two parts – a ceremony where they exchange vows, and a reception followed afterwards. A typical Japanese wedding ceremony and a Japanese wedding reception can be quite different than western weddings. In Japanese wedding culture there is a dress code. Let me just say it’s typically a lot more strict in Japan as there are countless rules, especially for females. For example, women can’t show their shoulders, knees, toes, wear furs or animal prints. They must wear only nude stocking and not black ones and the list goes on. And when you attend as a family of the bride and groom, you must absolutely follow the rules so they don’t lose face. For friends though, there is some gray area. When you attend a Japanese wedding, you must absolutely bring a wedding gift, which typically, only cold hard cash, called Goshugi. No wedding registries really exist. Japanese don’t even know what that is. In addition, it’s critical to use a special envelop, specifically designed for the wedding gift where the ribbons are made to not be untied. And the amount itself is important. Friends and co-workers are expected to give at least 30,000 yen per person, about $225, while cousins and relatives gift at least 30,000 to 100,000 yen and immediate family members are expected to gift even more.

Wow, that is so interesting. Thank you so much Paolo for sharing that with us. I learned so much about Japanese traditions and customs from that video. Japan is really a totally different world.
P.S. Wolfy walking down the aisle was really adorable
Sehr schön 🌷🌷🌷
My son, a Black American married his longtime JAPANESE girlfriend years ago in a very, at the beginning traditional ceremony-at a historic registered temple in northeast Japan followed by 6 wardrobe changes by the bride, to a very modern ending reception celebration. It was quite a cultural learning experience. And, even though I do not speak Japanese I could easily figure out the activities including at the temple. Truly unforgettable wonderful experience. Oh, and yes, for couples with children, a small crib was available at the reception. And, because I jumped up and started dancing (though my son told me not to do this), everybody, especially the older guests also joined me 😂 when the music piped in began playing top tunes of the day. Thank you for this video!
Tuxedos, western dress, high heels, classical music, white wedding dress, ring bearer, banquet …. Looks like a western wedding to me.
Congratulations 🎉🎉
Wolfy is so adorable 😊
one of my ex coworkers got married a few years back. he's american and married to a half japanese/half american lady. i didn't attend the wedding myself, but he told me horror stories about the japanese wedding planner companies. they had a very set way of planning out the wedding, and there was practically no way of compromising or changing anything. they ended up ditching the japanese company and chose a company in the US instead. they did this since the wedding venue itself was still the same (hawaii).
Very informative ❤
Such a pity they don't dance!
Indian wedding is quite the opposite of Japanese, not so formal and strict but have a great time and party all out.
That's so cool! Never seen or been invited to a Japanese wedding. Thank you Paolo!
Much different from chinese
Chinese number 9 are good number
But wear black are not allowed due black is for funeral purposes
But gift envelopes was same as chinese culture
Congrats Erina on your wedding, and also Wolfy too for having the opportunity to be the ring bearer! Not only does it showcase how different a Japanese wedding is, it also shows how the family is growing
I love that the rules implemented are understood and respected by everyone in attendance. Also, the Families being introduced to one another before the ceremony, is such a lovely custom. What a fabulous glimpse into a Japanese Wedding.
amount of money for the wedding is similar to wedding party in cambodia.
Million 🤩Congratulations
okay, who told your kid to lock his knees walking down the aisle? Hilarious! I laughed so hard… super adorable.
lovely
I love the reading letters and how the crowd very supportive and clap their hands. Food drink flowers dress code it’s perfect but to bring the party alive I still think they need the 💃 🕺🏽
精致！每个人都很优雅！
im crying TuT
I was so confused when I lived in Japan and my boyfriend, who I had been with for 2 years, was invited to his friend's wedding and I couldn't go. I even had met his friend before. I hadn't realized until then that they don't get plus ones. I did get to go to the afterparty at an izakaya. It's crazy that what would be rude in one culture is perfectly acceptable in another. Now, I like the idea of not having plus ones unless specifically invited.
Tell us about vows. What are those traditions?
I'm surprised that recap video of the day shown at the end of the reception is not much more common here in the US. I feel like that'd catch on in popularity very quickly.
dude this is just like south asian wedding when it comes to cloths and money hahahahah similarity amazes me
16 jun 2023, 7.10am @sentul perdana, KUL MY…i believe japanese traditional wedding is more interesting than moder or western like this content…..
Congratulations to Eri and Junya 🎉
