Mejiro Garden: The No.1 Location for Kimono Pre-Wedding Photos

A moment filled with smiles at Mejiro Garden.

Mejiro Garden is our most popular location for traditional Japanese-style pre-wedding shoots.
Enjoy a serene moment filled with smiles in this peaceful Japanese garden, softly lit by natural sunlight.

One of the unique features of Mejiro Garden is the traditional Japanese room, Akatorian. Surrounded by the calming scent of tatami mats, couples can relax and let their natural smiles shine through the photos.

What’s more, the tea room at Mejiro Garden is significantly larger and more elegant than those in other gardens. It’s an ideal location for couples who want stunning photos in a classic tea house setting.

The garden itself is compact—you can walk around the entire area in under five minutes. Even in heavy kimono attire, couples can enjoy their photoshoot comfortably and without stress.

Photos You Can Take at Mejiro Garden

The garden features a pond, a small waterfall, and beautiful flowing water—creating a tranquil setting perfect for capturing elegant and emotional moments.

Take a moment to relax in the hexagonal pavilion (Ukimi-dō) that floats on the pond and offers a panoramic view of the garden.

In the Akatorian Japanese room, you can pose for traditional sitting-style shots or opt for more casual and intimate moments, like chatting and laughing together on the veranda.

The view of the garden from the room’s window is also stunning. Even on rainy days, the space offers beautiful, dreamy photos without concern for the weather.

At Mejiro Garden, you can truly enjoy the best of both worlds: scenic garden photography and peaceful, elegant shots inside the tea room.
