“Hiring Mina was one of the best decisions we made.
Mina helped us bring our wedding vision to life in Japan—
an intimidating task since we planned from afar, had never
visited the venue, and aren’t fluent in Japanese.”

–Joann and Tylor

How it began — My path to wedding artistry.

Where a simple passion evolved into a lifelong calling.

My career began as an executive secretary with American companies in Tokyo, where I was responsible for organizing business events. I discovered that I loved finding remarkable venues and creating meaningful moments.

Floral design began as a weekend hobby—until I studied the Parisian style of composition and color. Under the guidance of a French Cup Champion (now an M.O.F.), I learned the beauty of natural, spontaneous design, color scheme and the iconic Bouquet Rond Mariage.
This training shaped my artistic foundation.

After winning a Japanese flower competition, I became a freelance floral stylist for bridal and media events.
In 2012, I was selected by a renowned Japanese department store as the special coordinator for an event featuring Shane Connolly, florist to Prince William and Princess Catherine. This honor remains one of the most meaningful milestones of my planning career.

My work naturally expanded into wedding and event planning—allowing me to blend floral artistry with full creative direction.
