The groom and bride have had a deep connection with Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine for a long time. The bride has experience as a shrine maiden at Dazaifu Tenmangu, and the groom has worked in writing goshuin. Therefore, Dazaifu Tenmangu is a cherished place for both of them, and they envisioned their wedding there. Additionally, at Hotel CULTIA Dazaifu, Arita ware from Saga Prefecture is used for the dishes served to guests. Since Saga Prefecture is the groom's father's hometown, they felt a connection to this as well, which led them to choose Hotel CULTIA Dazaifu as the venue for their reception.

The meetings were conducted entirely online, centered around the bride. The bride carefully prepared everything while valuing the wishes of the groom and their families. Both of them participated in the tasting event, where they thoughtfully selected the dishes to be served to their guests. Additionally, they prepared special arrangements that reflected their personalities. The meetings were conducted in a friendly atmosphere, with each important guest in mind.

On the day of the ceremony, we were blessed with wonderful weather and the best location. Surrounded by magnificent nature, the solemn ceremony was held at Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, which has a long history. The bride, dressed in a traditional white kimono, and the groom, elegantly wearing a formal hakama, captivated the guests with their refined presence and dignified attire. As they received blessings from many, the couple, united by divine connection, created new memories at Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, a place of deep significance for them.

The dishes that the couple carefully selected are special menu items created by the chef, using plenty of local ingredients from Fukuoka, such as Hakata Wagyu and Yame tea. Each ingredient was prepared in a way that maximizes its appeal and was served to the guests. For the appetizer, we prepared a dish that is an arrangement of the signature menu item, 'Seafood Jelly - Sunflower -', providing a splendid welcome. Additionally, we incorporated potatoes grown by the groom's father into the dishes, adding a touch of originality. The attention to detail extends not only to the food but also to the plates, which are from 'Kanezengama', a pottery studio in Saga Prefecture, the groom's father's hometown, further enhancing the main dishes. The combination of dishes made with carefully selected local ingredients and the ultimate plates crafted by artisans resulted in a truly exceptional hospitality experience, made possible by Hotel CULTIA Dazaifu.

In the cake-cutting scene, instead of a knife, the couple is holding a "saw"! This unique touch reflects the groom's profession as a carpenter. The thank-you bites were shared with the parents of both the groom and bride, as well as the bride's nephew. The bride seemed to be utterly charmed by her nephew, creating a warm moment filled with her radiant smile. During the interlude scene, the bride was escorted by her uncle, while the groom was accompanied by his younger brother as they exited. Afterwards, the couple changed from traditional Japanese attire to Western-style outfits for their entrance. The elegant atmosphere of the traditional attire was transformed into a dazzling impression with their new outfits. The bride, who is a nail artist, had nails that matched both her white kimono and her colored dress, showcasing her stylish personality even in her fingertips.

The warm and touching atmosphere of the venue was enveloped by a message video prepared by the bride's mother. Upon watching the heartfelt video filled with her mother's love, the bride was moved to tears, creating a profound moment that also touched the hearts of the guests. The bride prepared a letter for her parents, leading to an emotional exchange of feelings between them. During the scene where the couple presented a commemorative gift to their parents, everyone wore cheerful smiles, contributing to a harmonious atmosphere. The image of the bride's mother receiving the gift while a photo of the bride's late father was nearby was particularly striking. As the couple bid farewell to their guests, they offered a small gift, the local specialty 'Umegae Mochi' from Dazaifu. The wedding was filled with thoughtful details that reflected both the essence of Dazaifu and the couple's personalities until the very end.
