The Japanese wedding traditions are a unique blend of what is rooted in their culture and how their beliefs come together to bind a union. In this section we discuss the traditions that the Japanese practice when tying the knot...
The Japanese when following their traditional arrangement of putting a wedding together, perform sacred rituals and proceedings that is both an ancient practice and one that is very much revered till date. A lot of Japanese people want to get married through this method, where many old folk parents and grandparents will insist on doing it the traditional way. A rich heritage backing proves to be quite the foundation to such a mesh of cultural solidness, where no other culture has the Japanese's subdued traditions and welcoming facade. The wedding is traditionally held in a shrine, known as the Shinto style ceremony. The engagement when done, is called the yunio, where the gifts exchanged symbolize different ideas like 'growth', 'child-bearing woman', 'wealth' and 'good will'. Gifts of the sort include konbu, linen thread, dried cuttlefish and so on.
