couple pose for their formal wedding photos - Meiji shrine Tokyo
I think this couple were such a handsome pair.
her headdress serves the same purpose as the hood in the other photos - to hide her horns. The concept of horns of jealousy intrigues me.
It was wonderful to watch a team of assistants carefully arrange the folds of her kimono, adjusting the angle of his hand holding the fan until they were satisfied and then the wedding photographer did his bit. I like that there was a carpet mat for them to stand on on the dirt courtyard.
This shows not all wedding kimonos are white, but you can see the length of it, meaning brides need assistance to walk along carrying the fabric so it does not drag on the ground (which was probably part of the problem for the wonky bride from the other day)
