How they met

"We met when we were freshmen in high school, and the groom fell in love at first sight.

Although they often hung out together as a close group of seven, it never developed into a romantic relationship.

The groom was rejected twice, but with the support of his friends, the third time was a charm and they finally started dating.

After entering the workforce, they overcame three years of long-distance living and got married on their fifth anniversary.

We have the same birthday, so we registered our marriage on our birthday the following year.

Why did you choose THE ORIENT?

"THE ORIENT was a memorable hotel where we stayed on our first anniversary since we started dating.

The rooms, the hospitality of the staff, the food, everything was wonderful.

It all started when I was selecting a wedding venue and decided to try out the salon first."

How did you feel at the first meet?

I accompanied her several times while she was choosing a dress.

When I met him right before the performance, I almost cried.

The sense of security that comes from overcoming numerous fights and being able to safely hold a wedding.

Looking back, I think it was the joy of knowing that I was really able to marry this person."

Bride's outfit

Dress episode from coordinator

"The bride has a lovely smile and is modest and refined.

Even though I long for a voluminous wedding dress

The mermaid-line wedding dress that has always captivated me

Among them, I was captivated by the beauty of the macrame lace and the perfect silhouette of the dress, and it was my destiny.

We tried on several wedding dresses and agonized over the choice together.

Will you make your dreams come true, or will you believe in the excitement you experienced at Treat?

The bride's charm, modest and lovely smile, and outstanding proportions are all showcased.

This dress was truly a wedding dress for the bride."

Family Meat

"It was refreshing to see my parents in a different state than usual.

I caused a lot of worry during my student days, but I hope I've shown a glimpse of my maturity.

Wedding ceremony

The wedding style they chose was a witnessed ceremony.

While being watched over by the people who supported me the closest

It was a time for the couple to exchange vows in a way that was unique to them. The venue was filled with smiles and applause.

Party concept

"I had in mind a homey home party.

I would like to express my gratitude to the people who usually help me.

I hope that the guests will have a fun time like a class reunion.

We aimed to keep the distance as close together as possible and to minimize seating times.

Flower coordination by plants collection

The venue was decorated by flower designer Noritaka Igarashi.

"The theme is 'a happy and enjoyable atmosphere for all guests.'

The arrangement is centered around sunflowers, gerberas, and ranunculus, with vibrant colors like yellow and orange.

It was designed to be bright and appealing to people of all ages.

The sunflowers requested by the bride were a little early in the season, but they arrived safely.

You can also combine it with ranunculus, a symbol of spring.

A "miraculous collaboration" of spring and summer flowers has been realized

The bride was elegant, but she deliberately chose casual flowers.

It was natural and not overly decorated, and it conveyed the desire to have fun with the guests."

Your venue image and handmade paper items

"I imagined the venue to have a bright and warm atmosphere with orange and yellow.

It was a spring ceremony, but I really wanted to use my favorite sunflowers.

I am so grateful to Mr. Igarashi for making this wish come true.

Our guests also commented that the venue had an atmosphere that was uniquely us.

I was very satisfied with the finished product, which was better than I imagined.

Most of the paper items were made by ourselves from scratch, which was extremely difficult.

I look back on those fond memories as I remade the profile book and place cards over and over again until I was satisfied with them."

New Classic Wedding

The venue they chose was "The Bamboo Room" facing the water terrace.

"New Classic Wedding" is a special proposal that allows you to rent out the entire floor

You can enjoy the luxurious use of the courtyard and foyer, as well as outdoor activities.

Because this plan is only available during twilight time, dusk falls towards the end of the party.

You can also enjoy a romantic moment with the candle decorations that stand out even more.

"On the day, thanks to the efforts of florist Igarashi and the staff,

It was beautifully arranged in an excellent space.

There were a little more guests than usual, but the distance between us was close and we had a lively and comfortable time.

"I was worried whether the weather would be fine on the day.
　
After hearing about it during a wedding venue tour, it was one of the events I wanted to make happen.

I was very happy that everything went well.

The sight of all the guests coming close to us and supporting us became a really fond memory.

A special time spent with a loved one chosen by the bride

I was unsure about whom to ask to be my escort.

He has always cherished me since I was little.

I chose my grandparents, who came despite not feeling well.

I thought my grandpa wouldn't cry, but he cried and was so happy that I was alive, and I was so happy."

A heartwarming escort to change your clothes with your precious friends

"These are the three guys from a close group of seven in high school.

Including the two women, I asked them because they are benefactors without whom I would not have been able to get married.

Everyone was happy and I was happy."

Special re-entry performance

"I was particular about the appearance of the dress change.
　
This was something the planner thought of and suggested.

We were all going to appear one by one from the courtyard, so I was a little nervous about how they would react.

I was relieved when I heard everyone cheering and getting excited during the dress color guessing quiz.

We both completely transformed the vibe of our outfits, and we were happy that it was well received.

Changing dress

Color Dress: RS COUTURE

A collaboration dress between the long-established Italian brand RS COUTURE and TREAT

The three-dimensional back ribbon creates a dramatic back view.

The deep red color and sophisticated silhouette caught the attention of the guests.

Dress episode from coordinator

"This cherry red dress was a perfect match for the bride's bright and lovely personality.

The gorgeous yet elegant colors and soft, flowing organza texture

It really gave the impression of a "makeover."

It is a classic and orthodox look that matches the bride's dress.

The result is a piece that exudes a modern essence.

"Culinary hospitality"

"We had guests who came to Kobe from far away, so we focused on menus that would give them a taste of Kobe.

I chose a course that everyone would find delicious!

The price wasn't cheap, so I attended a tasting session and spent a lot of time thinking about it.
　
I splurged because I wanted my guests to be happy.

I was glad that people, both men and women, told me that the food was so delicious that they ate it all."

"Dessert buffet on the water terrace"

It was a unique feature of the New Classic style, so I included it.

The flow of guests to the courtyard encourages interaction between guests.

One of the attractions of the production was that it stimulated lively conversation.

I really wanted the bride and groom to try THE ORIENT 's Basque cheesecake, which is their favorite.

The other desserts were also appealing, so I opted for the buffet.

There were guests who loved THE ORIENT 's cheesecake just like us, so it was a great time.

Just as we imagined, it was a lively and homey atmosphere.

Unfortunately, we were busy taking photos and couldn't participate.

Someone please organize an event and invite me!"

Guests who answered correctly in the costume guessing quiz will receive

A surprise gift from the bride and groom

The second half of the party was spent taking photos, chatting with other guests, and spending time as you pleased.

Time to express gratitude

The path I have walked so far, supported by my parents' love

It's a warm moment to write a letter expressing your gratitude and reaffirming the bonds of family.

Their thoughts after the party

I sincerely feel it was worth doing.

With all my favorite people gathered together, it was the happiest day of my life.

It was a great opportunity to reaffirm how important our parents, the guests, and each other are to us.

I would love to have another wedding, but I don't want to go through all the planning again!"

Feedback from our guests

"It was the most homey experience I've ever had, the atmosphere was wonderful and made me happy.

I received a lot of happy messages."

I chose THE ORIENT and it was a good choice.

"More than anything, the food was delicious!

I'm glad I chose THE ORIENT."

The most memorable moment of the day chosen by the couple

"The moment I arrived at the venue and met the planner, Mr. Ikeda, was memorable.

On the day, due to some trouble, I was late for my scheduled arrival time.

When the necessary items have not been created

We were in quite a rush. In contrast to our anxiety, Mr. Ikeda was smiling.

I felt relieved and it helped me.

In fact, thanks to the efforts of the staff, including the construction of the foyer, we were able to complete the project without any problems, so I am very grateful."

A message to the bride-to-be who is about to enter the ceremony

"Above all, I think it's important to prepare in an orderly manner.

Once the things I was worried about were over, I realized that everything turned out fine, possibly thanks to the help of others.

I think the best thing to do is to take your time and proceed so you don't end up with any regrets.

Even though I had to cut down on my sleep and was constantly on the move, I feel that it was really worth it.

I think future brides who will be getting married at THE ORIENT will feel the same way.

I'm so glad that we can reach that day.

May everyone getting married have the happiest day in the world!

A message to the groom-to-be who is about to enter the ceremony

"You should plan your wedding well.

It's difficult to tackle it at the last minute like summer vacation homework.

I believe weddings often have many elements that are more about personal satisfaction, so if you can distinguish between what you care about and what you don't, it would be beneficial.

I think I can control the burden.

Looking back, I think we were a little late in drawing this line.

I think there was a lot of rushing just before the event and I didn't have time to spare.

I watched various people's weddings online and in movies to get inspiration.

I think there will be a lot of things I want to incorporate.

I don't want you to give up just because you don't have time.

As mentioned at the beginning, I want you to work on it in a planned manner.

If you prepare well, I think you can laugh and accept that mistakes happen.

I hope you all have the best wedding ever. I'm rooting for you!"
