Question1
Since Japanese weddings are expensive, do you think having a massive wedding like Korea or UAE is a good idea? Eloping? Having it in a foreign location like Hawaii?
Answer
I don't want to have a massive wedding so I don't think it is a good idea. A massive wedding is so expensive!! I don't believe to spend millions of yen for JUST ONE DAY. It's a waste of money. But marriage is one of the happiest event in human's life so it is nice to cereblate massively. And if you have a massive wedding, you can realize that you get married and new life start.

Question3
