Japanese Marriages

awwww congratulations Danny and Waifu :D 12 years how sweet ^O^ I wish you both many many more years to come! :)

Always hoped for something simple, chances are the would-be-wife might prefer otherwise however >_>

CONGRATS!!!

I've grown up seeing people having huge traditional weddings. When I saw my sister-in-law in a beautiful white gown years ago, I decided that I wanted to see my wife like that ^^; Although the price tag might make me thing twice >.>;;;

I wanted the simpler kind but it turned out to be a bigger thing (well... things happen).
Congrats Danny, our anniversary is this month too.

*play piano tunes*

Congratulation to both new marriage couple ^_^

Happy 12th anniversary to Danny & Mrs.Choo ^_^

Kinenbi Omedetou! Danny

Go-kekkon omedetou gozaimasu Joi San

My wedding was traditional, but we try to keep small and simple as possible, but with a Hispanic family and traditions (similar to Italian, Greeks and others) that's almost impossible there is to much pressure from your families to have something big and noisy. But at the end was relatively small and simple^^.

Congratulations~ Whoah, 12 years already..
Hmm, I'd prefer to have a traditional one, a small one though.

Omedetto Danny!!!12 years is a very long time...this must be true love..

Congrats to Danny & wife!

In Malaysia I think people generally prefer a proper wedding ceremony. Even those who register first would have a ceremony later.

Not all go for traditional ceremonies though. Some of my friends had their wedding ceremony Western-style. The more affluent ones could (and probably would) go for both ^^;

Congrats to Joi Ito^^ and Happy 12th anniversary to Danny and Waifu^^

Congrats to Joi on the new marriage, and you on the anniversary. ^_^

I had a traditional. The ceremony was nice and short, but the photographs afterward took forever. It hurt to smile after an hour. ^^;

Congratulations to Joi Ito on the marriage and congratulations to you on the anniversary ^o^
I have a big family, so having a small but, sweet event may not be a possibility ^^;
It may be a cross between simple and traditional for me, but I'll be content with that >.<

Congratulations to the both of you! I'm very happy for both couples :3

Just saw the video; that's some amazing quality right there *3*

i reckon 80% of readers are nowhere close to the legal age of marriage though hurhur

As a guy I have absolutely no choice in the matter as to what type of wedding my wife will want.

Congrats Danny on 12 years of marriage.

Congrats on the 12 years of being happily together!

I'd prefer something simple for my wedding, I think it's really a hassle to do something big...

Congratulation for joi marriage and ur wedding anniversary.

Congratulations on 12th anniversary! ^^

I didn't vote cus my wedding is most prolly.. so many years ahead.

Congratulations on your 12th anniversary Danny! And to many more anniversaries to come!

It's a very important occasion so I think it's better with all the bells and whistles...

Omedato to Danny ^^

It will still be many long years before i think of this issue haa =3

Congrats on 12 years. That means you're doing something right.

My wife and I are coming up on our 29th anniversary this summer. We had a traditional ceremony, but I'd as soon gone the simple route.

Congratulations on your 12th anniversary Danny!I wish you all the best!

I like the simple ways to get married don't really like to get through all the traditional things that needed to be done. I would like to have is a simple wedding with my wife at a church and then go on a vacation to Rome or Italy to enjoy. That's what I will want in the future :D.

Traditional for me. While I would have been happy with a simple affair, it was still quite a personal wedding as we didn't have a big guest list. A perfect day!!.

Congrats on 12 years Danny!

Quoting Tougou from School Rumble, "SPACE WEDDING!" XP

Congrats on your anniversary Danny.
and congrats to Joi Ito-san too.

so....

what's it like to be married?
especially to a person who approves of what you do for a living/hobby/mix?

i would love to see a traditional japanese marriage

me too(^_^)

My best wishes for your newly-wedded comrade, Mr Danny!

BTW advance Happy Anniversary too XD

What kind of marriage I would have? Like I'll get married someday... Pffft! -_-

12 years already ? omedetou, danny !

OMEDETOU!!!

Best wishes to the new couple! May they be blessed with happiness in the years to come!

おめでとうございます！！

My wife and I just got married on 30-Oct at Oosakihachiman Jinja in Sendai. It was a traditional Shinto ceremony. Here is a photo of the shrine:

Keep the family tradition alive ^_^

I would like a wedding ceremony somewhere between simple and traditional. I would like the dress and the church and all my loved ones there, but I don't want a horde of bridesmaids and page boys or anything. I also don't want a formal 3 course meal after my wedding either, I want a buffet in a nice, cosy reception hall. I don't want a honeymoon, I'd be happy to stay at home and just cosy on up with hubby.

I'm hoping to get married sometime after my fiance finishes university, however the marriage will have to wait because we want our own house first and buying a house as a first time buyer in the UK can be a very grueling process.

Simple is the best. All the compromises that a traditional wedding ceremony requires, are unnecesary, I think.

祝结婚周年快乐。

I need to get one of those 5D!

omedetou Danny!

I think I'd like a traditional church ceremony, but no big formal party or anything afterward. Just something simple, casual, and fun after.

congratulations Danny!

Something between traditional and simple would be nice~ ^.^ Want to dress in a beautiful pure white dress, and then declare our vows to each other, and also have our few most loved noes to celebrate with us. ^_^

congratulations to Joi Ito and best wished to his wife. and to Danny and his wife a warm congratulations to both of you on your 12th anniversary.

I always wanted to have a simple wedding. But it just the problem with the family and relatives may not like and always wanted a traditional way. I dislike it very much.

>We are having our 12th wedding anniversary this month
Congrats:)

Congrats on 12 years.

I would love to get married...i just haven't met this miss suzumiya yet......

great videos :)
congrats to the both of you

wow 12th~ congratulations danny and I hope you and your wife love each other more :) you're such a wonderful guy and by what you share to us about her, you both deserve each other ^^;

on weddings: I want a simple sea-side wedding at a small chapel

Congrats on the 12th wedding anni! ^^ As for the question I'd prefer a simple registration, my partner and I are rather practical people and don't want to spend a ton on a lavish wedding.

My first marriage was traditional because of the exwife's request.

Second marriage was registration because of mutual requests from me and my wife.

Not married as yet with few prospects, but some sort of traditional ceremony would be nice.... the question is *which* tradition?

Being son of a seamstress and fashion designer, I guess I'll have a big, traditional wedding xD

Congrats! ^^

おめでとう！ When I was in Japan, I managed to get a glimpse of a Japanese wedding... I think I'd prefer just a simple one myself x_x

Although I wouldn't marry, unless she wants it badly

Congrats on your twelfth anniversary! That's the "Silk" anniversary. Silk is the gift given between couples. Silk roses are a nice gift, or perhaps you could give her something else made of silk?....Use you imagination! All the best Danny. P.S. A simple gathering for me.

Congrats to Danny and Wife :D

happy 12th anniversary! my wife and I had a simple registration because at the time we were too poor to afford a traditional wedding, but we're still happily married

Congratulations!
Cheers for more happy years to come. ^_^

Congrats!!!

As for me, I think I want a modern day marriage...in short, I make it a wedding that only I will have. It won't be the usual traditional wedding, but it's still a wedding

Weddings are such a waste of money in my opinion. I will do as my parents did. Go some place far away with just each other! (They went to Hawaii for 1 month!) and still cost them less then if they had a big wedding. I just hope when I find a girl I want to marry she is fine with that, cause I really don't want a formal wedding. I'm thinking Australia :)

Congrats, you guys!

As for me, I want a registration with a costume party afterwards. And I want chocolate cake, not one of those frilly things.

Happy 12th Danny and Mrs. "Danny"!

As tempting as a big wedding sounds, I am a simple person at heart and would much prefer the simple wedding (i.e. like above). Town hall is good enough for me. I just hope my future spouse feels the same way...^^;

Joiさん、結婚おめでとう！！

no girl wants to marry me :(
would like a low key affair though when the time comes. just imagining a huge hall filled with people staring at me gives me the creeps.

also congratulation Mr and Mrs Choo on your 12th wedding anniversary. I don't know why its called Silk Anniversary though.

Congrats!!!

I really want to marry a Japanese girl :D

I'm not much for marriage myself, if you're happy together and have a commitment, should be plenty, no?

Have been almost married though. ^^;;

Best wishes to the newly weds!

I'd like a traditional wedding, in a church or basilica with the reception nearby at a reserved large space at a hotel. Then again it's all up to the girl on the details and plans so I can't really say much as chances are she'll have it her way.

Husband and I had a Civil Ceremony. Nice, private and cheap ;)

It'll all depend on the lady I guess... marriage simply doesn't mean much to me (the ceremony).
But I do hope it's none of the above. Something a little crazy, I mean.

When I marry I will have a traditional wedding. Marriage is supposed to last for a lifetime. A registration at a town hall feels like a parking premit or something to me (read: something you can change every year if you like). I imagine that I might offend somebody with that statement and I'm sorry if I did, but at the same time I like to answer the question honestly.

As for the price, it is possible to have a great traditional wedding at a low cost. My parents married just after they bought the house and they had nearly nothing to spend on the wedding. My mom made her wedding dress (you couldn't tell) and they made all the food themselves in advance. The expenses on the day itself was limited to hiring a high school girl (or two, can't remember) to heat/prepare the preprepared food and serve it. The result was great food at low cost (for 30 people) and everybody were happy. It's a myth that a traditional wedding has to be expensive and need live music and stuff like that. The main goal is to gather the whole family for the moment and make sure everybody are happy.

Even if I might have the money for a big wedding I guess I will use the same strategy since money can only be used once and I can imagine other stuff that needs funding too :) (not to mention savings for bad times)

Congratulations to them and to Danny and his wife. Wow 12 years already. I would like a traditional wedding, though perhaps not in a church.

Actually, I've never attended a wedding before in my life. o_o

I would want a wedding but, nothing too big. Yeah, it's a big important day but, I would imagine the more you have going on the more chaotic it could get.

it would be traditional with the works!

weddings are so nice

Congrats to you and Mrs. Choo on your 12th anniversary. :)

I think I'd go for traditional but invite as little people as I could. :>

I think Any is fine as long as both people are happy =)

Wow, 12 years! Congratulations!
My views might change when I get older, but right now I think I would want a simple wedding with my closest friends and family as guests. Nothing too flashy.

If I happen to get married, I want it to be simple, but that decision will be left up to the wife.

BIG BIG BIG!! PARTY!!! Why? Because marriage to me I believe should be a one time thing.

We're eloping in Hawaii (I'm bringing my parents~ and friends can join if they wanna)

I guess danny marriage wont be the other 50 percent

congrats for the newly wed
also congrats for danny and his wife for their upcoming 12th anniversary.
i could somewat image a more traditional wedding ceremony since i am used to being at traditional weddings ~having a large family comes with a lot of celebration~ but I don't want it to be too big since it kinda dulls the actual event that is taking place which is the union between me and my future wife ~i'll find her someday, hopefully, -.-~

Wedding?
I didnt even think about how or when or even with who XD
Actually im scared to death (okay maybe a bit exaggerrated) about mature things like having kids or getting married.I dont wanna call it a nightmare but i somehow think its over with my happy life if one or the other happens.I really like my kiddy way of life and i dont know to me it seems like your losing alot...(you probably gain alot aswell but oh well)

Simply said i dont wanna think about anything like that in my current phase of life.It could be totally different when im 5 years older tough.

Seriously i have no idea.I think it depends on your and your partners wishes if you just register or have a big ceremony

Traditional and Loooong.

Congratulations from me too, Danny! Having a nice and simply registration is a great idea and I support it! In fact last week in French class we had a lesson about marriages. I'm far from mine but I would want it to be simple, without making a hustle, boasting and all.

I don't have much to say on the subject, but I do have to say, "Congratulations!" on your 12th anniversary upcoming.

Grats Danny!

As much as I would love to wear a beautiful wedding dress, it's too expensive and I think it's asking too much. I'd be ok with a simple marriage.

Congrats to all! Been happily married for 5 yrs myself. It was just a simple sat morning registration for us. No wedding dinners or anything like that for us. Me n my wife r from small families, and she's a very practical person. she felt that all those big weddings r a waste of time n money. <^;^> Marrying her was like the one of the smartest thing I ever done.

I'm not so fussed by the ceremony, as long it's preceded by my husband signing over his millions to me in the event of his death, and followed by an unfortunate choking-to-death-on-cake incident.

His funeral would be minimal though, got to save those pennies :p
