What do weddings tell us about culture? A cultural ＊anthropologist would certainly
be able to answer that question better than I can, but I have noticed some interesting
differences between American and Japanese weddings.
One difference is how Japanese and Americans use the word “wedding.” In American
English the wedding is the ①actual marriage ceremony, and the party afterwards is thereception. A wedding invitation in the U.S. always invites you to both events, ＊whereas
in Japan it’s more common to be invited only to the reception.
So, a ②typical American wedding is far more public than a Japanese one. TheJapanese ceremony is essentially a family affair. People often say that a Japanesemarriage means a marriage of families, not just the couple, and perhaps keeping theceremony private ＊reinforces that idea. After all, the traditional concepts of uchi andsoto are still powerful in Japanese society.
Sometimes the family is not even invited to an American wedding, though friends
usuallyare. A Texas friend told me his oldest son was married in Hawaii, but he didn’t

go. The couple invited a few friends, no family at all. The
surprising thing is that this（コピーはできません）
father and son are very ③ close. He would have liked to go, he admits, but heunderstood that the wedding was really for the couple.
The expression (A)“anything goes” may describe American weddings best. Somecouples choose a traditional ceremony while others design everything themselves. ATexas wedding I attended ④recently was of the latter type: designed by the couple, andvery, very romantic. It took place next to a river, and the bride and groom wrote theirown vows, several pages long! They spoke directly to each other about their love, hopes,and dreams.
I suspect that American weddings have gotten more and more personalized as theAmerican family has changed. So many weddings these days are for couples who havechildren from previous marriages. Plus, those getting married are likely to havedivorced or remarried parents as well. With such complicated families, it’s not
surprising that American weddings tend to be all about the couple rather than thefamily. A wedding is a happy ⑤occasion, and keeping families out of decision-making
may be the simplest way to keep things happy after all.
