Most weddings in Japan start with a religious ceremony in which usually only family members attend Afterwards, a banquet is customarily held to which many people, including friends and colleagues, are invited To celebrate the happy occasion, guests give the bride and groom goshuugi
– gift money in special envelopes Goshuugi from friends is usually 20,000 yen or 30,000 yen
Trang 4A typical Japanese wedding party starts when the bride and groom enter the banquet hall together, and take their seats on a slightly raised platform facing their guests Invited guests are seated closer to the bride and groom, with family and relatives seated further in back The bride's and groom's bosses usually give congratulatory speeches then their friends sing in celebration Other wedding highlights include a candle ceremony where the couple holds a candle while greeting their guests at each table, and the cutting of the wedding cake Afterwards, the bride and groom thank their parents with a speech, then leave to end the party
In the past, dishes that supposedly brought good fortune, such as prawns and sea breams, were served in abundance So much of the food was ordered that guests ended up taking the surplus home Today, the majority of the weddings serve just enough for everyone Additionally, before leaving, guests would traditionally receive souvenir gifts called hikidemono
Many wedding ceremonies take place at wedding halls or hotels Rough estimates show that it costs about 3 million yen to host a wedding party for 80 guests During Japan's economic bubble, overseas weddings and flamboyant receptions with special effects, such as smoke machines and having the bride and groom fly in on gondolas, were very popular But these days, couples choose to tie the knot in various ways, from not having any ceremony to having a modest affair, or still going all out
