FULL SERVICE WEDDING PLANNING IN JAPAN

We offer full-service wedding planning in Japan for couples navigating a destination that is as beautiful as it is complex.

Our international team bridges cultural nuance, language, and logistics with ease – allowing you to focus on the experience, not the process.

Every wedding we plan is guided by one philosophy: meaning matters. The result is a celebration that feels effortless on the surface, and meticulously considered beneath it.

We believe weddings in Japan should feel personal, not prescriptive..

Rather than fixed packages, we work in a boutique, bespoke way – hand-selecting venues, vendors, and experiences to suit each couple individually.

From Okinawa coastlines to Mount Fuji vistas, Tokyo cityscapes to cherry blossom ceremonies, every celebration is crafted with care, creativity, and deep local understanding.

Explore our work, and when it feels right, we would love to hear about your plans.

Destination Weddings In japan

Japan offers a rare depth of beauty – from sacred mountain landscapes and centuries-old shrines to refined ryokans and contemporary city settings. It is a place where nature, culture, and ritual coexist with remarkable harmony.

At 37 Frames, we design and plan destination weddings in Japan with a focus on meaning, flow, and experience. Every celebration is approached as a considered journey – shaped by place, season, and the people at its heart.

Japan is not simply the setting for your wedding. It is a collaborator in it.

The seasons, the landscapes, the rituals, the pace, the light – all influence how a day unfolds. We plan with this in mind, allowing place to inform the feeling, rhythm, and meaning of the celebration, rather than treating it as a backdrop.

As English-speaking wedding planners in Japan, our bilingual, international team bridges cultural nuance, language, and logistics with ease. We work closely with trusted local partners across the country, whether you are planning an intimate ceremony beneath cherry blossoms, a refined celebration overlooking Mount Fuji, or a modern wedding in the heart of Tokyo.

Our services are bespoke and full-service by design. From venue discovery and creative direction to production, guest experience, and on-the-day coordination, we guide every element with care and clarity – allowing you to be fully present for the moments that matter.

Planning a wedding in Japan is unlike anywhere else in the world. With the right team, it becomes not only seamless, but deeply rewarding.

Thoughtfully planned. Deeply rooted in place. Always personal.

ELOPEMENTS & Intimate weddings IN JAPAN

Elopements and intimate weddings offer a different kind of luxury – one defined by intention, presence, and connection.

Choosing a smaller celebration allows space for meaning. Freedom from expectation. The ability to shape a wedding day that reflects who you are, where you are, and what matters most to you.

At 37 Frames, we design elopements and intimate weddings in Japan for couples drawn to depth over spectacle. Each celebration is crafted with the same care, creativity, and cultural respect as our larger weddings – simply on a more personal scale.

Japan offers an extraordinary canvas for intimate celebrations. From refined ryokans and historic machiya to mountain landscapes, sacred shrines, coastal vistas, and modern Tokyo settings, every location is chosen for its atmosphere, beauty, and sense of place.

As English-speaking wedding planners working across Japan, our role is to guide you through the process with clarity and ease – translating not just language, but culture, logistics, and nuance. Whether your celebration is for two or a small circle of loved ones, we approach every elopement and intimate micro-wedding as a complete experience, thoughtfully designed from beginning to end.

If you’re dreaming of a wedding day that feels deeply personal, beautifully unhurried, and grounded in place, we would love to begin the conversation.

wedding photography & FILM in japan

At 37 Frames, photography is not an add-on to the experience – it is integral to it.

Our approach is rooted in storytelling, place, and presence. We document weddings and elopements in Japan with a cinematic, editorial eye, allowing moments to unfold naturally while remaining deeply attentive to light, composition, and emotion.

Your photographs and wedding film become the lasting record of your day. Not just how it looked, but how it felt. Images that deepen in value over time – revisited, shared, and passed on.

As wedding and elopement photographers in Japan, we focus on capturing what matters most: the quiet exchanges, the people you chose to be there, the atmosphere of the place itself. Always with authenticity. Always with intention. Always with refined craft.

Our work has earned the trust of couples from around the world, from intimate elopements to large-scale celebrations, for one simple reason – every story is treated with the same care, regardless of scale.

Whether you engage us as your photographers, planners, or as a full-service wedding studio, our team works seamlessly to ensure your celebration is both beautifully experienced and beautifully documented.

Across Japan

Japan’s diversity is not just visual. It shapes the experience in every celebration we design. From rhythm and ritual to light and landscape, place informs how moments feel and how memories endure. We approach each location with respect and curiosity, letting it guide the experience rather than merely host it.

Places We Work

Our work spans Japan | from Tokyo’s refined modernity to Kyoto’s timeless elegance, from coastal vistas to sacred mountain settings. Every location has its own rhythm, customs, and emotional energy. We don’t just plan in these places — we plan with them.
