So many Japanese wedding tourists are trading golden rings in the peak summer and autumn seasons that the interdenominational American Church enlisted retired pastors for the marriage ministry dominated by the couples. A towering Adventist church outside Paris and the American Cathedral, which offers Episcopal ceremonies, also perform large numbers of the ceremonies.
For those who can’t travel there are many Americans, Canadians and Australians who pretend to ministers. This is a popular dayjob for foreigners here in Japan.
Wedding ceremonies in churches by Japanese couples are simply a business, not a tiny bit of enlightment of Christianity.
