Combining Japanese Traditional and Natural Taste: A Summary of Key Points on the Trending "Wachural Wedding" ♡

A Dream Yet with a Stiff Image: Japanese Traditional Weddings＊

Many prospective brides may admire the traditions and beauty of Japanese weddings, but also feel that they have a bit of a stiff impression, right?

Do You Know "Wachural Wedding"?

For those brides, I would like to recommend a "Wachural Wedding" ♡ A Wachural Wedding combines "Wa" (Japanese) and "Natural Taste," creating a modern Japanese wedding ♩ By adding a natural and casual touch to the traditional atmosphere, the "Wachural Wedding" is slowly gaining popularity now＊

It's very attractive to enjoy the charm of Japanese elements without the stiffness, arranged in a way that feels true to the couple ♡

Here are some points to consider for holding a "Wachural Wedding," from rituals to decorative items ♩

Wachural Wedding Point 1: Japanese Style Human Ceremony

A Japanese wedding ceremony isn't just about rigid forms＊ As long as you can engrain feelings of gratitude and new resolutions in your heart, it's perfectly fine to maintain the form while flexibly creating a ritual performance that reflects the couple's personality!

Among them, I highly recommend a Japanese style human ceremony where you wear traditional attire while reading your vows ♩ People often associate human ceremonies with wearing a wedding dress, but of course, it's fine to hold it in traditional attire too ♡

If you want to have a Japanese wedding but feel that a shrine ceremony is a bit too grand, changing to a human ceremony is perfect＊ Since you vow your love in front of your guests, it will surely be enveloped in a harmonious atmosphere ♡

Wachural Wedding Point 2: Subtle Elements of Japanese Style in Decorations and Gifts

The reception, where you can interact with guests after the ceremony, is where brides aspiring for a "Wachural Wedding" can really show their skills ♡ The point in decorations and gifts for a Wachural Wedding is not to adhere to "Wa" in every item, but rather to subtly incorporate Japanese elements ♩

By combining Japanese patterned origami and rosettes, you can create cute Japanese-style place cards unique to a Wachural Wedding ♡ Use slightly casual wedding items to lighten the mood for all the guests ♩

Want to incorporate the essential bridal shower into a Japanese wedding? In that case, try using mizuhiki for the bridal shower ♡ The combination of Japanese and Western styles really embodies the essence of a Wachural Wedding, right? ♩

Wachural Wedding Point 3: High Flexibility in Traditional Attire

Traditionally, wearing a traditional Japanese hairstyle with a formal wig was the norm, but recently, Western hairstyles and makeup have become commonplace ♩ Casual traditional attire is also a point of the "Wachural Wedding" ♡

While the classic style of a white bridal kimono and a cotton hood is good, there are no strict rules for the clothing at actual Japanese weddings, so with a Wachural Wedding, you should choose outfits like colored kimonos or furisode that reflect your true self ♡

Wachural Wedding Point 4: Gorgeous Attire Change

One of the charms of traditional attire is that you can dramatically change the impression with the choice of colors, patterns, and accessories while maintaining a formal elegance ♡ The attire change should be a vibrant coordination that stands apart from the ceremony, a hallmark of a "Wachural Wedding" ♩

Seeing the bride and groom dressed in vibrant costumes will surely help guests relax and enjoy the reception ♩

Many fashionable brides are now enjoying the coordination of traditional attire with more items than dresses, adding Western-style items such as nails, bouquets, and floral headpieces＊

A "Wachural Wedding" That’s Not Stiff but Full of Charm♡

Japanese people admire traditional Japanese weddings, but until now, they seemed a little too high barrier for both the couple and the guests, right?＊ However, with a "Wachural Wedding" that incorporates a natural taste, a warm and casual Japanese wedding can become a reality ♩

Let's create a "Wachural Wedding" where everyone can enjoy a Japanese wedding ♡
