If you are a young Japanese woman having a traditional japanese wedding, then it probably goes without saying that you would be renting or buying a Uchikake a gorgeous kimono. The white Uchikake is just part of the elaborate Japanese
wedding ceremony.
Unlike traditional Western wedding dresses, that have train or material that flows along the ground at the back of the dress, the Uchikake is long all the way around.The bride has to be assisted by one of her attendants to walk in this kimono.
Here is a nice little video of a geisha being dressed in a kimono.
Interesting i never seen a wedding like this before and i want to attend someday,keep posting!
