Welcome Family and Friends
We are greatly looking forward to our wedding day surrounded by our wonderful family and friends! Right after the wedding celebration, we'll be visiting Japan for 2 weeks. We're excited to revisit the place where we felt the same earthquake in 2018, despite not knowing each other--like fate!

-
Staying in a Ryokan
These traditional Japanese hotels with private onsens, or hot springs, are what Stephanie is looking forward to most to help unwind!
-
Tokyo Disneyland Hotel
While we are visiting Tokyo Disney, we plan to stay at the Toy Story Hotel--our first experience at a Disney-owned hotel!
-
Rental Car - Road Trip in Kyushu
We plan to take a road trip(don't worry, Grayden will be the one driving!) around Kyushu, the southernmost prefecture of Japan. Having a rental car will help us get to off-the-beaten path sites!
-
JR Pass - bullet train
Stephanie loves public transportation!!! This is like Boston's MBTA, except 100 times faster, cleaner, and sexier. We will use the bullet train to get from Tokyo to the Japanese Alps, then to Fukuoka.
-
Omakase
Grayden and Steph want to try a fancy sushi omakase for the first time, and in the home of sushi nonetheless. (If you've been to Tokyo, Takayama, or Fukuoka and have a recommendation, please share!)
-
Wagyu Steak Dinner
Grayden has always wanted to try authentic Wagyu steak. Though we will not be stopping in Kobe, we've heard Fukuoka has some amazing food too!
-
Traditional Japanese Tea Ceremony
We don't really know what exactly this entails, but we are excited to find out!
-
Souvenirs
Help Stephanie further clutter their apartment with various tchotchkes and clothes, likely thrifted! Then when people ask about it, she can say "Oh, I got it in Japan..."
-
Disney Souvenirs
In a separate category, because Japan is the world's best theme merchandiser. We will never beat the Disney Adult allegations, so why not lean in?
-
Dessert Binge
Have you seen those TikToks/Instagram Reels of "This Viral Japanese Dessert"? Well, Stephanie has, and she's gotta eat em all. (Grayden can have some too, I GUESS.)
-
Eel for Grayden
Grayden's favorite kind of sushi. He started drooling when looking at this picture. Please help him strike fear in the hearts of eels everywhere.
-
Sumo Merch
Grayden has become a huge sumo fan over the last 2 years, and he really wants to buy sumo souvenirs (sumonirs?)
