Photography: Couture Naoco Wedding

This is an all-encompassing wedding facility which faces the beautiful ocean ("Churaumi") in Nago City, Okinawa Prefecture.
A banquet building and a chapel stand on the sandy beach along the shoreline, while 12 villa suites, reserved for the bride and groom and their guests, are situated on a hill in the short distance. All the guest facilities have an ocean view and are designed to take full advantage of the natural light and the backdrop of ocean and blue sky with large windows. In order to get to the symbolic chapel, the guests descend under the surrounding water basin and take the path underneath. Once in the chapel surrounded by glass walls, an extraordinary space embraces everyone with abundant light and the sound of water coming from waterfalls cascading down the side walls.
