Meiji Shrine Part II

As Bridget and I were wandering around the Meiji Shrine we saw a LOT of weddings. Before I left D.C. my co-worker made me this amazing Tokyo guide (it was invaluable!!)and she stated that you could see some weddings, some is an understatement. In the short time we were there we saw at least 3 weddings.
It is an unique experience because as you are walking around looking at the Shrine all of a sudden you will see a Shinto priest and shrine maidens leading a bride in the traditional Japanese wedding kimono (Uchikake)and the wedding guests.
