A Day to Transcend Nationalities and Become a Family
A bridegroom from Italy and a bride from the Miura Peninsula create a two-night three-day wedding day. We heard that when the bridegroom from Italy paid his respects to the bride’s parents regarding the marriage, he communicated his feelings with all his might in the unfamiliar Japanese language. We heard the effort fully made an impression on the bride’s parents, and they felt blessed that the bridegroom would become a part of their family. We could tell from the expressions of the couple’s family members and friends that the couple exerted themselves over and over until this lucky day to fit into each other’s country and family. For the special days of the couple, who embraced different cultures and traditions, their wedding ceremony was first held in Italy, the homeland of the bridegroom, and their wedding day was held in Japan, the homeland of the bride. They had their big day in Japan. The couple wore Japanese clothing and held their second wedding ceremony at a Shinto shrine that overlooked the sea off the coast of Japan. And their love was blessed on sacred grounds. We believe that the moment they went under the archway of the shrine was a stirring one, through which the cultures of different countries intersected. A reception, where the couple enjoyed a meal with everyone, was held at MAYA. When the reception began, families were introduced. The bride and bridegroom and all their guests introduced the families to each other, conversing variously in Japanese, English, and Italian. The sight of each family establishing emotional bonds with the other, transcending the limitations of words, and building new bonds caused a happy atmosphere to fill the entire venue. Even now, we, who were helping out, fully remember the strong emotions we felt at the moment when love and respect were conveyed even though the words were different, and the bonds of a new family began to form. During the reception, footage of the wedding ceremony held in Italy was shown, and everyone was enveloped in a warm atmosphere. The bridegroom’s family, who arrived from Italy, came into contact with Japanese culture and traditions and shared the couple’s joy. The food, the ceremony, and various elements combined, and it became a day when the couple’s love shone even more. At night the party did not end even after the reception was over. The couple invited their friends and spent a delightful night with them. We hope that through this special day, the couple’s future will be rich and happy.
