[ Mio finds herself smiling, something a little relaxed. She really enjoys learning things from him, especially if it's like this. ]

That sounds like you're going to end up spoiling my family, you know.

[ She's definitely expecting it at least. But that's not a bad thing, she thinks. In fact, all of the traditions that he explains to her. But if he's going to share traditions with her, then she has to do the same, doesn't she? ]

But that's pretty interesting... most wedding ceremonies back in Japan depend on religion, although the general weddings back home are based off of Shinto traditions. There's the yuino which is similar to the tradition you talked about earlier, where the groom's family would send gifts to the bride's family through a third party mediator and then a member of the groom's family would visit the bride's family to make sure the engagement was accepted and then the bride's family would treat him to a feast. And brides even typically wear a white kimono for the ceremony and then the uchikake for the reception, which is a silk robe covered with embroidered flowers and cranes. Like... white means virtue and patience, which is why the kimonos are usually white, but the place would be decorated with red. And the brides would also wear a wataboshi, which is a white silk hood and it has over the bukin takashimada - which is a hair bun. And it basically represents modesty and humility.

[ And so on and so forth... there's a lot. ]

Ahaha, but maybe I shouldn't be talking about that now, huh? It's probably a bit overwhelming, and it's still going to be really, really, far off.
