婚嫁事件簿

若要瞭解當地的文化、生活水平,廣告是一項直接而有趣的媒介。
京都伊勢丹10樓一隅,陳列了洋式和式的婚紗禮服,還有很多婚宴package的宣傳單張。日本人消費高,要求細緻,看看日本人對婚宴的要求與港人有何不同,也是件有趣事,於是我拿了幾份單張研究研究。
京都伊勢丹與數間京都酒店,在限定期內,共同企畫婚宴的套餐,內容大同小異:包括行禮場地、佈置、料理、飲品、一對新人的禮服(在伊勢丹選)、美容、記念照片、音響照明等。 有趣的是,package以40位賓客為基數、費用由1,450,000日圓至1,090,000日圓不等。(即10萬港元至7萬多港元)。每多一位賓客,追加費用由23,000至15,750日圓 (即1545-1058港元)。如果以香港的scenario計數,擺10圍酒,即120人,埋單時由15萬港元至22萬港元不等,嘩...........,勵害!兩地的薪酬不同,當然不可以這樣比較。
這幾個packages都以法國菜+和菜為賣點,法國菜總是給人高貴精緻的形象,和菜嘛,也要照顧大叔大嬸們的口味。
還有很多折扣優惠,所謂愛屋及烏,列席賓客也有着數,就是酒店住宿有折扣,八折至半價。這也是一個selling point,婚姻是兩個人的事,但結婚是兩個家族的事,如果新娘的老家在東京,新郎大本營在京都,在京都舉行婚宴的話,兩家親友的住宿也要考慮!兩地國情不同,在香港1個小時的車程已是老遠了!

Remark:京都JR車站旁有伊勢丹、戲院、地下街、主要巴士站,十分方便。伊勢丹是我最喜歡的日本百貨公司,比起大丸、高島屋,她少了份老氣!京都伊勢丹11樓是食肆,有一間吃海鮮和蕎麥麵的關西料理,被冠於高級料理,但最貴的都是3000多日圓,很多人排隊,我也有試試,味道錯!另外一家吃豬扒的,有一人份量的,十分細心,yummy yummy。

在神户的購物街,有一間和服店,很綺麗kineyi!

  • 呢個比較幾得意!
    莫非想格定價?

    比較少香港人有機會出席日本婚禮,
    其實有甚麼分別?

  • no prob! Thanks for visting my blog too! =)

    ha! i tot so too ... tot it's too 'colorful' to be a traditional japanese wedding gown. =P

    Getting married has become an expensive affair in Singapore too. Recently, i know of someone who paid S$8000 for her wedding package with the bridal studio only! There's still the wedding dinner, wedding cakes, angbaos, etc etc ... besides the dinner .. all others are usually sunken costs! =P

  • I prefer use the money in honeymoon journey.I like a simple but warm ceremony but not a 大龍鳳式婚宴.Both the brides/grooms and the guests suffer.....

  • I think it's better not to spend too much just for the sake of 面子排場. A quiet nice honeymoon far away would actually be nice !! I agree with Eden, that is a beautiful kimono !!

  • 我們這一輩通常都喜歡簡單的儀式,
    問題是雙方家長的想法...
