Congratulations on your selection for the 9th COOL JAPAN VIDEOS photo contest.
The following are the judges' comments.
------------
The bride procession shown in the photo is a ceremony in which the bride, groom, and relatives form a procession and walk slowly to the wedding venue.
I don't see it much now, but it was a happy sight that I used to see a lot.
The bride in a beautiful costume walks neatly and cleanly, and I have chosen one that will share the hem of happiness.

We are still holding a photo contest with the theme of "Japan Nature", so we hope you will join us.
We look forward to your continued support.This text has been automatically translated.
