We just wrapped up a fabulous celebration at Zojoji Temple, and as we pulled up to park at our 37 Frames studio, a local festival passed right by our back door—mikoshi and all! 🏮✨
This is why we love local life in Shinjuku SO MUCH. It’s moments like these, being part of the neighborhood heartbeat, that make living here feel so extraordinary. There’s something about these unexpected, everyday celebrations that keeps the magic alive.
Does anyone know why this little local festival always lands on the first weekend of September? We always think it heralds the end of summer and the bringing in of fall. But, whatever the reason, it’s one of those surprises that never gets old.

My own weather phenomenon encyclopedia!!
A purple sky in Tokyo. So yes… we do have typhoon (now tropical depression) ShanShan pouring over us right now. And we have had a lightning show and half these past couple of days. People all across Japan have just witnessed this massive weather event. But a purple sky in Tokyo??!!!
So of course I had to come home and look it up. And Dee was half right. There is an old adage “Red sky at night, sailor’s delight.” And she seemed really shocked that I’d never heard this before. (Because apparently Shakespeare knew it… !)
But not purple. So how about a purple sky?
So I googled it… and the first thing that came up was “The Danger of a Purple Sky: Don’t Wait, Run!”.
So ok. We’re in a typhoon. So I guess that adds up. But I did find this:
“Sometimes purple sky appears — it can be caused by hurricanes, wildfires, or dust storms. The concentration of vapor in the air increases, and the light scatters more than usual. Dust, a setting Sun, and low cloud cover all contribute to this natural show.”
So that’s our Tokyo experience of the day. A purple sky. The weather’s been wild. But it was a beautiful sight. And completely belied the damage and destruction it has left in its wake down south.

I have no idea why we did this. Lol. It just felt right at the time. Sunset. Rose. A cliff. A drone. 80’s revivals. And a family of Gen X-ers.
2024 has been an unforgettable year already, filled with incredible weddings and amazing couples from all over the world! 🌍✨
As we head into our busiest season—fall—we’re gearing up for what’s ahead. With almost all our yearly weddings celebrated over spring and fall, summer and winter become our time to plan, plan, plan recharge, and focus on mental health and putting all the upcoming wedding timelines and prep together. Planning season is mentally tough. Wedding season is mentally AND physically tough. So … we get our fun where we can. Kung fu flighting with the fam.
We’ve been working hard behind the scenes, recharging our energy over the summer to make sure we’re at our absolute best for our autumn clients. And now, we’re ready to dive into the season with an incredibly beautiful amount of celebrations lined up in the next 107 days! 4 different countries. And all over Japan. It’s a big challenge, but we’re all in and can’t wait to celebrate love with each and every one of our couples. 💪🎉

The magic of Off the Beaten Path Japan
A little peek into two of our favorite hidden gems in Japan: Satoyama Villa Den and Satoyama Villa Honjin. So authentic and completely off the tourist track. Our clients (and us!!) all know just how much this part of Japan touches our soul.
Just outside Matsumoto, Nagano. We’ve celebrated here in Spring (cherry blossoms are amazing). And summer holds its own magic: green and refreshing. But this area is spectacular in every season.
🏡 Satoyama Villa Den: Nestled in the heart of lush greenery, this serene retreat offers an intimate connection with nature. Wake up to the sound of birds, sip your morning tea on the wooden terrace, and watch the sun set over the mountains. It’s the perfect escape for anyone looking to unwind and reconnect with each other. (Or to elope!!!)
🏯 Satoyama Villa Honjin: A blend of traditional charm and modern luxury, Honjin offers a unique experience steeped in Japanese culture. From the soothing bath to the exquisite tatami rooms, every detail is crafted to provide a sense of peace and tranquility. It’s a dream destination for those who appreciate the art of slow living. To just breathe and be. AND it’s a perfect location for a micro wedding - to celebrate with your special people.
Whether you’re planning a small destination wedding, an elopement or just a romantic getaway, these villas are the epitome of Japanese style and relaxation. WE LOVE THEM. And love seeing how captivated our couples are when they arrive in person.
And the energy when they leave buoyed with endless love and memories. What an experience.
We love recommending these villas. The team are amazing. They have a very special place in our hearts. And we’re happy to have them as part of our 37 Frames family.

📍 Reims, France
POV: you do The Champagne Tourist Route after the Olympics and start with lunch at House Veuve Clicquot.
600 kilometres of breathtaking scenery. The route winds its way through the vineyards across rugged hillsides, past Champagne villages, churches and chateaux.
Not enough time to explore. We have a wedding in this region next year. So it was ‘officially’ a work trip. But we LOVED exploring and meeting so many incredible people who we’ll team up with for this celebration. And so we start… at Veuve.
Madame Clicquot:
The “grande dame of Champagne”
Barbe Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin was born in 1777. Widowed at the age of only 27, she took control of her own destiny and became one of the first modern entrepreneurs. In an era when women were excluded from the business world, she dared to assume the head of the company founded by her father-in-law in 1772, a role she undertook with passion and determination.
Her creativity and lust for innovation led to many firsts in Champagne: the first known vintage champagne; the invention of the riddling table; the first known blended rosé champagne. Three inventions that revolutionised champagne making and were widely adopted by producers, becoming the basis of modern champagne production.
Madame Clicquot made her name into a brand of excellence and had it shine the world over. Her formidable contributions earned her the nickname of “la grande dame of Champagne”.
Female empowerment. We love it.

Whatever you do - whether for work or pleasure - do it with passion! Live with passion…” Christian Dior
LOVED IT!! Inspirational. Been wanting to go for the last few times we’ve been in Paris, and we finally made it. La Galerie Dior was exceptional. Located in the heart of Paris, this stunning exhibition space showcases the legacy of Christian Dior and his iconic house. From his revolutionary “New Look” to modern masterpieces, every piece tells a story of creativity, innovation, and French luxury. As Dior himself said, “One breathes in fashion with the very air of Paris.”
Even for someone as non haute couture as myself it was mesmerizing on every level.
The Icon of French Elegance 🇫🇷
Christian Dior revolutionized the world of fashion, putting France at the forefront of global haute couture. From his debut collection in 1947, Dior’s designs epitomized elegance, femininity, and luxury, defining a new era with his “New Look” that brought back glamour and sophistication to post-war France.
His impact goes beyond stunning dresses. Dior’s vision transformed Paris into the fashion capital of the world, creating jobs, boosting the economy, and nurturing future design talents. His legacy continues to inspire, making France synonymous with timeless style and innovation.
Explore exquisite gowns, rare sketches, and personal artifacts that celebrate the genius behind one of the world’s most influential fashion brands. Whether you’re a fashion enthusiast or simply curious, the Dior Gallery offers an unforgettable experience that captures the spirit of Parisian elegance and craftsmanship.
“Fashion designers offer one of the last refuges of the marvelous. They are, in a way, the masters of dreams...” Christian Dior

Soaking it all in. #paris2024 #olympicflame #AllezAus
POV: standing in the Heart of Les Invalides… in front of Napoleon’s tomb. Watching an immersive experience near midnight. Amazing.
AURA is an immersive experience inside the Dôme des Invalides. Showcasing the iconic monument’s rich architecture and heritage through light, video mapping, and music, we were taken on a spectacular journey SOOOOO worthy of its setting.
