Here are some tips about you should know about summer wedding in Japan

What You Should Know About Summer Weddings in Japan

Japan’s summer (July–September) may look beautiful on Instagram, but the reality is extremely challenging—especially in Tokyo and Kyoto.
For this reason, we do not accept summer weddings.

Why We Don’t Accept Summer Weddings

1. Extreme Heat & Humidity

Temperatures often reach 35–38°C with intense humidity.
This can be dangerous for children, elder guests, and anyone wearing formal attire or kimono. Outdoor ceremonies and garden photos become nearly impossible.

2. Difficult to Enjoy Your Pre/Post-Wedding Trip

Many couples imagine exploring temples, gardens, and city streets around their wedding day.
In summer, the heat makes sightseeing exhausting, especially in Kyoto.

3. Typhoons & Sudden Heavy Rain

Outdoor weddings may need to be cancelled or moved indoors at the last minute due to storms, strong winds, or downpours.

4. Japan’s National Holiday Crowds

August overlaps with Japan’s summer vacation season (Obon), meaning:

  • Higher hotel rates

  • Busy airports and train stations

  • Crowded tourist spots

  • Longer transportation delays
    This affects both you and your guests.

5. Limited Floral Options

Fresh flowers are limited in summer and wilt quickly, especially outdoors.
Luxurious floral designs are difficult to achieve during this season.

For the Best Experience, Choose a Different Season

Japan’s most beautiful, comfortable, and elegant weddings happen in spring (March–May) and autumn (October–early December).
Better weather, better flowers, and a far more enjoyable travel experience for you and your guests.

If you're considering a wedding in Japan, we would love to guide you toward the ideal season and location.
