Planning a Wedding in Japan #0 – Intro and Outline

So, my boyfriend proposed and now I’m engaged. Both of us know nothing about what we should do to plan a wedding, so I figured it would be interesting to blog about our journey. I want to hold a Shinto-wedding, and probably a not so pricey party afterwards.

Updates will happen when they happen.
Please feel free to comment or ask me questions on the various posts 🙂
