<August Report>
Communicating feelings of love and gratitude
At-home wedding
Wedding party report
We met while studying abroad as students.
The groom was captivated by the bride's smile and pursued her actively, leading to the start of their relationship.
This day came after five years of dating.
The concept of the party is a wedding that conveys "love and gratitude."
"I want to create a space where everyone can feel comfortable, from babies to grandparents, without leaving anyone behind.
"I want our guests to enjoy themselves and have a wedding filled with many small joys."
We have been making preparations while cherishing those feelings.
First meet
The moment of the first meet
The groom said, "It was embarrassing."
The bride said, "I was excited to see how they would react."


Bride's outfit
Dress:LELA ROSE
Classic yet urban, casual yet luxurious
The beautiful balance of contradictions in this brand enhances the charm of the bride wearing it.
The hand-painted tulips make for a playful design that is characteristic of Lela Rose.
A dress chosen based on the comfort it provides and the degree of happiness felt when worn.
Dress episode from coordinator
A bride who treasured her own individuality
The simple yet unique design was a perfect fit.


Family meet
Family gathering before the ceremony
I was eagerly anticipating the moment the doors would open, excited for everyone to see me in my wedding attire.
The fathers laughed happily and said, "It suits you!"
I felt a little shy when I saw the mothers crying with faces contorted with emotion.
I realized once again that I am loved."

Wedding ceremony
I walked down the aisle, making eye contact with my guests and cherishing every step of my happiness.
"It was also impressive to see my husband crying when the baton was passed from my father to him."


Your child will enter as the ring bearer
"It coincided with her nap time and made her cry a lot.
I couldn't help but feel an overwhelming affection for the way she fulfilled her significant role. The guests also praised her for being absolutely adorable."
The guests watching over the event were filled with warm smiles.


The venue they chose was "The Terrace Room"
We cherish the desire for parents to be close to their children.
We will arrange the parents' seats closest to the couple's main table.
As we become parents, we come to understand both the feelings of children and the feelings of parents.
We made preparations with the thought in mind of what would make our children happy in the future.

Flower coordination
The image is "a warm, simple and sophisticated space."
The gold decorations on the formal attire, the white of the dress, and the venue, The Terrace Room, set in a lush green environment, were perfectly coordinated.
The colors of the venue decoration were unified to yellow, white, and green.
We planned to have conversations at each guest table, so we kept the area around the main sofa simple.
The floral arrangements on the guest tables were kept minimal to encourage interaction between guests.
On the back of the handmade place cards, each guest had a message of gratitude.


Culinary hospitality
I love to eat, so I want my guests to enjoy lots of delicious food.
They said it was delicious and the kids' plate was cute.
When I told them I was going to have my wedding at THE ORIENT, they said, "The food is delicious."
Some guests were looking forward to the wedding even before they came.


The outfit change was a surprise exit.
The bride is close to her brother and can talk about anything.
The groom rode on horseback and made a lively exit with his brother and cousins.

Changing dress
Re-enter from a private terrace surrounded by greenery
Dress: VIKTOR&ROLF MARIAGE
The second dress selected was from Viktor & Rolf Marriage.
A brand that combines traditional bridal wear with fashionable elements.
A simple yet eye-catching piece with a three-dimensional flower design on the shoulder line.
The groom wore a custom-made suit in a trendy nuanced color that combined green and gray.


Olive Ceremony
At the moment when the couple was temporarily away, soil was ceremonially added around the olive tree.
The couple completes the olive ceremony by watering the olive tree.
All guests are welcome to participate, and the experience extends beyond just the wedding day.
The appeal of this concept is that it can be preserved as a memorial tree and nurtured for years to come.

A time for guest couples to express their feelings to each other
The two of them handed out heart pies to the guests during table rounds.
We arranged a time for couples and parents with children to express their love and gratitude to one another.
"The whole venue was filled with happiness.
A couple hugging, children smiling at their embarrassed parents
It was a heartwarming scene that was hard to put into words, and it made us all feel so happy.
Choosing the heart-shaped pie from THE ORIENT was also a great choice.
What we wanted our guests to feel during our wedding
It was a very happy time where we were all able to share our love and gratitude."


A surprise from the groom
The surprise that has been secretly prepared is
A movie showcasing memorable places associated with the bride was shown, followed by the presentation of a bouquet and a message.

I was surprised because I hadn't expected any surprises.
Imagining that someone went to shoot and edit a video with me in mind.
"I feel loved and am grateful to have married this person."
I was so happy that tears flowed.

To create a relaxed environment where participants can comfortably share their genuine feelings about the day.
Instead of the usual thank you speech, we gave a speech to the parents of both families at the end of the banquet.
A surprise interview proposed by the planner
A warm moment where you can convey your feelings to the couple and their guests in a peaceful atmosphere.

Thoughts after the party
"I'm really glad I won the award because it has strengthened the bonds between my family and relatives.
The love we wanted to give to our guests has been returned in even more form.
I realized once again that I am loved.
I strongly believe that the love we received on this day will continue to support us throughout our lives."
"After the reception, we treated our parents to a night's stay and enjoyed the afterglow of the wedding.
Staying at THE ORIENT is also a special memory."
Guests also commented, "This was the first wedding I've ever had that was so much fun."
"It was a wedding filled with love and I was really moved."
"It was the warmest wedding I've ever been to."
Please tell me that you received such a nice message.
Reasons for choosing THE ORIENT
"We were able to choose what we wanted to do and freely realize it.
We were able to create a unique space that was not ordinary but unique to us.
It's not just a place to spend your happiness on your wedding day, but a place you can visit and remember for years to come."

A message to the bride-to-be who is about to enter the ceremony
I think a wedding is the only opportunity for all your loved ones to get together at once.
She smiled, made eye contact with each guest and enjoyed conversation.
By clarifying what we really want to do and what we want to convey to our guests,
We were able to make our once in a lifetime wedding a meaningful one.
The preparation period can be difficult at times, but it was an invaluable time spent thinking about our guests.
Preparing for the wedding while raising a child was much harder than I expected.
The staff were very kind and helpful and it really saved my mind.
I am so grateful to the planner and everyone who was involved in the wedding.
A message to the groom-to-be who is about to enter the ceremony
She looks 100 times cuter as a bride!
I tried hard not to stare blankly at the view.
At weddings, you can properly express the embarrassing things you normally wouldn't be able to say.
I had never seen my father cry before, but he was in tears, so it was a great success.
