Authentic
Japanese Weddings
We connect international couples with trusted wedding planners, venues, and vendors across Japan — bridging culture, language, and love.
for Japan
We are a small team passionate about Japan, its culture, and helping foreigners experience it authentically. When we saw how little existed to help international couples navigate Japan's wedding traditions — the ceremonies, the venues, the customs, the vendors — we decided to build it ourselves.
"Our goal has always been straightforward: to be the most useful, culturally informed resource for anyone planning or attending a wedding in Japan."
Not just a directory, but a genuine guide — written and reviewed by people who know Japan from the inside. Today we connect couples from around the world with trusted local planners, venues, and vendors across Japan, bridging culture, language, and love.
