Planning a wedding or special celebration in Tokyo? This private photography and reception experience offers a unique way to capture your special day amid the city’s vibrant backdrop. While it’s not your typical tour, it combines professional photography, a tailored venue, and the charm of Tokyo—all wrapped into a three-hour window.

What makes this experience stand out are its flexible settings at iconic locations such as Hibiya Park or Roppongi, the personalized attention from seasoned staff with over 50 years of wedding expertise, and the opportunity for stunning, professional photos that will last a lifetime. Plus, having a dedicated team fluent in multiple languages (English, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, French) can be a huge plus if you’re arranging a multi-national celebration.

However, this is a premium service costing over $7,100 for up to 15 people—so it’s a significant investment. Travelers who value high-quality photography, customizable venues, and an entirely private experience will find this perfectly suited. If your goal is a memorable, visually spectacular wedding or engagement celebration with a touch of Tokyo’s cityscape, this could be just the ticket.

The Locations and Venues

One of the biggest draws of this experience is the choice of venues. Whether you prefer the lush greenery of Hibiya Park, the vibrancy of Roppongi, the laid-back vibes of Ebisu, or somewhere outside Tokyo like Hachioji, the options are flexible. Each spot offers distinct backdrops—be it Tokyo Tower peeking through trees or modern cityscapes—that lend a unique flavor to your photos.

The fact that the itinerary is flexible means you can plan around your own wedding schedule or celebration needs. If you’re coming from the airport, the service offers pickup, easing logistical worries and allowing you to arrive relaxed and ready for your photoshoot.

Expect high-quality images, likely including both candid shots and posed portraits. This service is perfect if you want a wedding or engagement album that truly reflects your personalities and the vibrant spirit of Tokyo.

The Lunch Component

While the main focus is photography, the inclusion of a lunch or family dinner makes this a complete celebration package.

The meal enhances the experience by allowing you to enjoy your celebration without rushing.

Value and Cost

At over $7,100 for a group of up to 15, this experience is definitely an investment. But what you’re paying for is personalized service, professional photography, and the use of iconic Tokyo locations.
