Frequently Asked Questions
Which Kyoto venues have you filmed at?
We've filmed weddings across Kyoto, from Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples to traditional machiya houses, ryokan gardens, and modern reception venues. We're experienced with Kyoto's unique venue requirements and cultural protocols.
Do you film traditional Japanese wedding ceremonies?
Yes, we have extensive experience filming traditional Shinto and Buddhist ceremonies. We understand the cultural significance and filming restrictions of these sacred spaces and work respectfully within them.
How far in advance should I book?
