Incorporating Performances Related to Hometown ♡
Many brides and grooms likely take the opportunity to reflect on their lives and reaffirm the greatness of their hometown when getting married.
For couples who love their hometown, we recommend incorporating hometown-related performances into their wedding!
Hometown themes are not only appreciated by the couple and their families but also by the guests who attend on the day ♡
Hometown friends will surely feel the couple's love for their hometown and be happy about it*
Guests from different hometowns can learn about the places where the couple grew up, which will be enjoyable for them as well♩
This time, we will introduce performances related to their hometowns that you can incorporate into your wedding♡
Performance Related to Hometown ① Pre-wedding Photos in Hometown
Many brides-to-be are likely planning pre-wedding photoshoots before the wedding.
For brides who haven't decided on a location yet, a photoshoot in their hometown is recommended ♡
Wedding photos taken during the pre-shoot can be used for a welcome board or in movies played during the reception… They appear in various scenes*
Wedding photos taken in the place where you were born and raised will be appreciated by both family and guests♡
Performance Related to Hometown ② Local Character Welcome Dolls
If your guests are familiar with your hometown, preparing local character welcome dolls is also recommended*
They are rare and serve to promote the couple’s hometown too♩ Guests from different hometowns will also be curious and ask, "What character is this??" ♡
If many of your guests share the same hometown, preparing "local props" can really liven up the wedding♡
You can use motifs shaped like prefectures or incorporate dialects like "suki yanen"…
Everyone will surely have fun taking photos together♡
Performance Related to Hometown ⑤ Local Cuisine
For the meals served to guests at the wedding reception, if you can create an original menu, why not consider adding local dishes from the couple’s hometowns?*
It’s recommended to have the emcee introduce the dishes when they are served◎
Not just guests from the same hometown but also those from outside the prefecture will appreciate the uniqueness of the dishes♡
Performance Related to Hometown ⑥ Regional Specific Performances
Every region has its unique wedding traditions*
For example, "Kashi Maki" in Nagoya or "Mochi Maki" in Gifu…
Customs like "must give this as a gift!" also exist♩
Recently, fewer weddings incorporate these regional performances, so they might be seen as fresh and well-received by guests◎
