The Mirror Breaking Ceremony is Popular in Traditional Weddings!

In traditional wedding banquets where brides wear pure white or colorful kimono, many couples perform the mirror breaking ceremony*

The mirror breaking ceremony, where the couple strikes the sake barrel with a wooden mallet to the shout of "Yoisho!", is a traditional performance that signifies opening up the future.

After breaking the mirror, the couple pours sake into a 1-go masu and toasts with all the guests♩

The Barrel Cracker is Amazing!

Have you heard of the "Barrel Cracker," which takes the traditional mirror breaking ceremony to the next level?

The Barrel Cracker is a surprise performance where, at the moment the couple breaks the lid with a synchronized “Sei no!”...

A large number of gold crackers burst out of the sake barrel all at once*

Such a Gorgeous Moment♡
