Wedding

An Authentic and Traditional Japanese Wedding

Established in 1689, Maruto Shoyu offers you an authentic Japanese wedding ceremony.

A marriage entirely planned and produced with you, for a personalized and unforgettable experience.
Located nearby, O-Miwa Jinja and Muraya Jinja Shrines are two of the oldest shrines in Japan and both are dedicated to the spirits of 2 deities who are married to one another. It is said from time immemorial that matrimonial fortune will come to any couple who prays to both of them.

O-Miwa Jinja Shrine A peaceful ceremony in front of the deity of Love

One of the oldest shrines in Japan, O-Miwa Jinja Shrine still retains the original way of enshrining its deity. Held in the solemn atmosphere of the ceremonial hall, 2 shrine Miko maidens perform a traditional shinto Kagura dance called “Urayasu no Mai”

Kashihara Jingu Shrine The birthplace of Japan for the start of a new life together

In the first official historical record of Japan, it is said that Kashihara was the birthplace of the nation. Precisely, it is said that the current-day Kashihara Jingu Shrine is where Jimmu, the first Emperor of Japan ascended to the throne. How about celebrating your new journey in life together in such a reverential place?

World Heritage Site,
Kasuga Taisha Shrine The shining vermillion in the virgin forest

Built more than one thousand years ago, Kasuga Taisha Shrine is not only one of the most important shinto shrines in Japan, but also a World Heritage Site. In this shrine, a very old and traditional ceremony is held for weddings. Kikusuiro will check the availability of the shrine for the best experience possible.
