Step 1
A couple who is getting married, holds this party in which they serve a full-course dinner of French Cuisine or Chinese or Japanese-style food to all of the "visitors."
-
Step 2
The couple also presents the guests with gifts of tableware, confectioneries or a sea bream. The sea bream is a symbol of happiness in Japan.
-
Step 3
A couple called a "Nakoudo," (which in the olden days, were used to find a suitable partner for either the man or woman at a ceremony called an "Omiai") and main guests make speeches. The Nakoudo would typically be what we would refer to as a "busybody" old couple. Typically, friends of the couple will entertain with either a song or a musical instrument.
-
Step 4
The main events of the party include the couple cutting a big wedding cake and lighting candles on each of the tables.
