A wedding at Atsuta Shrine

Atsuta shrine is one of the most important shrines in Japan, reportedly ranking alongside Meiji-Jingu and Ise Shrine. I was in luck today to watch three wedding processions. It was unfortunately overcast but the music, moist weather and white cloth presented such an otherworldy atmosphere that I was completely entranced.
