Dreaming of a Traditional Japanese Bride's Appearance ♡

Pre-wedding shoots, ceremonies, outfit changes, post-wedding shoots…

One scene that you definitely want to showcase is the appearance of a bride dressed in a shiro-muku or irotomesode in traditional Japanese attire ♡

The dignified appearance of a traditional Japanese bride, different from a wedding dress, is sure to be appreciated by family and can be passed down through generations as timeless wedding photographs that won’t fade.*

Surprisingly Difficult: Choosing Traditional Bridal Attire

Although it's such an important choice for traditional attire…

In reality, choosing a shiro-muku or irotomesode often turns out to be more challenging than selecting a dress.

This is because, compared to dresses, the selection of kimonos available at typical dress shops or photo studios is often limited or consists mainly of outdated styles…

It can be quite difficult to find an outfit that feels just right.

Even if you find a stylish kimono that you think is "the one," it’s not uncommon for the price to be shockingly high and exceed your budget.

The more you focus on finding the right one, the harder it is, leading to the choice of “this will do” as a last resort…

It’s too sad for a once-in-a-lifetime bride's appearance to be reduced to that.

Calling All Brides Planning to Wear Traditional Attire! Have You Heard of 'wakka-和花-'?

Today, I would like to introduce a service born from the desire to change the current state of kimono selection.

'wakka-和花-' is a service established by a long-established kimono manufacturer in Kiryu City, Gunma Prefecture, known for silk textiles.

'wakka' is a service that allows you to rent high-quality kimonos online at reasonable prices.

Just like choosing a dress, we want you to choose a unique outfit from a wide variety of kimonos to have the best wedding possible. This sentiment is deeply embedded in the service ♡

➡ Traditional Kimono Rental Service 'wakka-和花-'

There are many services that offer kimono rentals for yukatas and coming-of-age celebrations, but…

'wakka' provides extensive support and favorable terms specifically for kimonos needed for the important day of a "wedding."

Let me introduce the charms of 'wakka'＊

Charm ① Try Before You Rent with Online Rental

What’s revolutionary about 'wakka' is that you can try on kimonos even with their online rental service!

In today’s society, the standard is often that “shopping online is cheaper than buying in a physical store” for bridal attire.

However, the downside of online shopping is that you cannot physically see products before buying.

While certain everyday goods might be easier, it requires courage to choose an outfit for such an important occasion as a wedding without trying it on.

In that regard, 'wakka' offers a 2-night, 3-day try-on service to ease your mind.

You can actually check the quality of the fabric and embroidery, the vibrancy of colors, and the overall vibe when worn.

The trial service costs 10,000 yen including tax, but you receive a discount of the same amount when you proceed with the actual rental, making it effectively free. Plus, shipping is free across the country, and there’s no need for cleaning—super convenient!

Charm ② High Quality of Kimonos and Excellent Coordination Sense

'wakka' is operated by a traditional kimono manufacturer based in Kiryu City, Gunma Prefecture, famous for silk textiles.

Hence, you can rent kimonos that are of high quality and are the same as those offered at actual stores, not cheap ones made just for online.

Moreover, the coordination is attractive, blending tradition with a touch of modernity ♡

Finding the right balance between tradition and contemporary style in traditional attire can be challenging. The coordination provided by 'wakka' is crafted by professional coordinators who have been involved in weddings for many years, ensuring that even those unfamiliar with kimonos can feel at ease.

Charm ③ Cost Performance: Less Than Half the Store Prices

'wakka' allows you to try on actual rental kimonos, and even though it’s online, you receive quality service comparable to regular rental salons at a price that is astonishingly reasonable.

All items including accessories and footwear start from 86,400 yen including tax, roughly 1/3 of typical in-store prices.

For example, the Shun-Ju-Ouka (春秋桜花) is priced at 162,000 yen including tax.

It features a colorful irotomesode woven with various flowers and coordinating Tiffany blue and pink accents ♡

The Kicchou no Mai (吉兆の舞) is also priced at 162,000 yen including tax.

This features antique gold and deep red embroidery of couple cranes—intricate craftsmanship from traditional artisans that is simply breathtaking.

In typical rental shops, you might only find the lowest tier options under 200,000 yen. The ability to rent such quality kimonos for this price is something unique to 'wakka'.

The groom’s montsuki hakama is available for 43,200 yen including tax. You can receive a 10,000 yen discount when rented as a set, allowing both of you to coordinate for about 200,000 yen.

Even when factoring in the bringing-in fee, it’s much more affordable than renting from partner dress shops while also giving you access to much higher-quality kimonos, which is a delightful prospect.
