First, we introduce the most popular shower in traditional Japanese weddings, the origami crane shower ♡ Guests scatter carefully folded small origami cranes.
The cranes made from colorful Japanese patterned origami are both spectacular and elegant ◎
The ground after the origami crane shower looks very cute* Such a foot shot is something every traditional Japanese bride would aspire to ♡
It also works great as a prop for pre-wedding photos* It seems like it will create lively and fun wedding photos ♡
Idea 2: Mizuhiki Shower
The Mizuhiki tied to congratulatory envelopes is often colorful and cute* A Mizuhiki shower made from small Mizuhiki pieces is a unique shower performance for traditional Japanese weddings ♡
Collecting Mizuhiki of different colors creates a lovely and unified look*
Conversely, giving guests Mizuhiki of varying sizes and designs randomly is also lovely*
Mixing it with the origami crane shower will make it even more festive ♡ "What did you get?" guests might want to show each other♩
Idea 3: Washi Flower Shower
A standard flower shower can also be arranged in a traditional Japanese way♩
This flower shower mixes petals made from washi paper* There are even sakura-shaped petals, which are very beautiful. Colorful Mizuhiki adds to the festive atmosphere♡
Idea 4: Paper Balloon Shower
A rare paper balloon shower is also an option* Paper balloons are popular items for traditional attire pre-wedding photos. They can be purchased at 100 yen shops and are easy to prepare since you just need to inflate them before the shoot♩
A shot taken directly from above with lots of paper balloons falling down is definitely something to try for a lovely photo♡
Idea 5: Ribbon Shower
It might come as a surprise, but... the popular ribbon shower seen in church weddings looks great with traditional attire too ♡
The combination of the bride's elegant colored kimono and colorful ribbons is super cute*
It's recommended to prepare warm-colored ribbons in orange, red, pink, etc. ◎
Traditional Japanese Wedding Showers Offer Many Variations ♡
