CK, I do admire the way you take photos. You must be a pro. And how I wish I could attend a Japanese wedding someday.

Nice shots. The colors are great. I wonder how many weddings are this traditional these days?

I am here for WW, but I got distracted by the McDonald's pictures. Very interesting!

The wedding procession is nice, too, of course. But does it compare to a Mega Teriyaki Burger?

Happy WW!

As the guide to Newlyweds for About.com and someone whose WW posts are always of weddings, I appreciate seeing the wedding rituals of other cultures. Thanks for sharing this.

Beautiful, of course. But I think weddings are a bit 'too done', give me barefoot on the beach!

Eve said...

WOW! That is wonderful. For some reason, I found myself drawn to the footwear.
