Journal #40-1 Here and There #40-2 Japanese Wedding is Like... 40-1 There are hair salons here and there in my hometown. Their number is more than that of convenience stores. I don’t know why there are so many hair salons. My hometown is not so good taste. 40-2 Japanese wedding is very systematic. Haruki Murakami said at his essay that Japanese weddings are like factories. Almost wedding halls cooperate with dress shops, flower shops and photo studios. Planners prepare some patterns of wedding, so bride and groom only choose from among the planner’s suggestion. Even only choosing, it’s difficult because it’s a first experience for young couple. And a wedding celemony is once in their life (usually). They don’t want to regret so they consider which is the best choice.
