From the groom's experience attending weddings, the couple had a positive impression of Shinto ceremonies and small weddings.
The design and architecture are handled by Sou Fujimoto, an architect active both domestically and internationally, who also serves as the venue design producer for the Osaka-Kansai Expo. The couple became interested in the temporary shrine at Dazaifu Tenmangu, and from there, they found "Hotel Cartia Dazaifu" as a venue for a small wedding after the ceremony at Dazaifu Tenmangu.
The groom was said to be familiar with "Hotel Cartia Dazaifu" due to work.

You chose 'Hotel Cartia Dazaifu' as the venue for your wedding ceremony, as it allows for a Shinto ceremony at Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine and a cozy, small-scale wedding.

The meetings with the two of you and your children were always enjoyable and bright. It was impressive to see how your faces lit up when we suggested ideas that included your children. This period of meetings felt like a time filled with family bonds and love.

Also, both the groom and the bride love alcohol. We also consulted about the performances at the wedding and the types of alcohol to be used.

Under the bright sunshine, the couple held their Shinto wedding ceremony at Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine.
The groom wore a black formal kimono and hakama, while the bride donned a white wedding kimono, creating a mystical moment as they walked through Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine with their family members. It must have been a memorable ceremony for their two children and relatives as well.

The wedding reception venue, which exudes a warm wood grain feel, was adorned with a delicate flower arrangement based on white and green.

Additionally, the couple made their entrance at the reception in changed outfits. The groom appeared in a three-piece suit, while the bride changed into a simple off-shoulder dress that complemented her orange bob cut, creating a look that felt both casual and elegant. The mid-length skirt, which revealed her shoes, gave a light impression, making the coordination feel closer to both the couple and their guests.

The venue and the coordination of the outfits have come together to embody the couple's wish to create a warm and harmonious time, precisely because it is a small gathering.

In the wedding cake ceremony, the couple incorporated many elements that involved their family. The atmosphere was filled with warmth as they shared moments like family bites and cutting the cake.
The couple's children also played a big role! The wedding cake featured the names of the groom and bride alongside the words "Happy Wedding," and next to it, the names of their children with the phrase "Happy Birthday." The cake, which included the names of all four family members, brought smiles to the faces of the family.

The cuisine features a prefix menu with approximately 2,500 combinations, allowing you to choose each dish to create a personalized course. For the fish dish, you can select "Grilled Sweetfish with Crispy Scales and Scallops in a Light Vegetable Sauce," which blends Japanese elements with French cuisine, among other carefully selected dishes that you can savor during the tasting. The menu is designed with a focus on hospitality for the guests.

Furthermore, because the couple loves alcohol so much, they wanted their guests to enjoy their favorite drinks, so they served red wine that pairs well with the food.

The couple's dedicated hospitality brought them significantly closer to their guests. They spent a harmonious time talking and smiling with family and friends, making it a day that fulfilled their wish for a wedding where they could spend time slowly with each individual.
