Embraced by the Verdant Hills of Mt. Wakakusa
A Tranquil Hilltop Wedding, Rich in the Spirit of Nara
In the ancient capital of Nara—where time flows gently and history lives in every breeze—
there lies a serene wedding stage nestled at the foot of Mt. Wakakusa: The Hilltop Terrace Nara. Here, nature tells a story of changing seasons.
Cherry blossoms bloom in spring, lush greenery thrives in summer,
vivid autumn leaves paint the landscape in fall, and winter brings mist and quiet stillness.
Each season unveils a different beauty, offering a richly textured backdrop to your once-in-a-lifetime celebration.
A Garden Ceremony in Harmony with Nature
One of the most distinctive charms of The Hilltop Terrace Nara
is the sweeping hilltop location overlooking Mt. Wakakusa.
A garden ceremony embraced by the changing seasons becomes a moment of pure authenticity—
a celebration that reflects your love in its most natural form.
As if drawn to the joy of the day, gentle deer may appear in the distance,
adding a quietly magical touch unique to Nara.
It’s a setting where both you and your guests will feel deeply connected
to nature, to tradition, and to the beginning of something beautiful.
A Magical Encounter with the Deer of Nara
What sets this venue apart is the enchanting experience of encountering Nara’s wild deer. Located within the sacred grounds of Nara Park and Mt. Wakakusa, this venue brings you face-to-face with these gentle creatures as you stroll to the ceremony or during photo sessions. A curious deer peeking into the pathway, or one grazing peacefully nearby during the ceremony,
adds an unexpected yet heartwarming touch to your wedding day.
You can even capture unforgettable moments in your wedding album—
a joyful scene of the bride and groom gently interacting with the deer,
a truly Nara-exclusive memory that will stay with you and your guests forever.
A Culinary Celebration of Nara’s Bounty
Your special day is accompanied by a menu crafted from the finest local ingredients, including fresh vegetables and renowned Yamato beef sourced from Nara. Inspired by both Japanese and French traditions, the dishes are refined yet comforting, designed by a chef from a Michelin-starred restaurant group. A feast for the senses that honors your gratitude and hospitality.
Ceremony
The independent chapel stands quietly amidst the forest,
a sanctuary of light, serenity, and greenery borrowed from Nara Park. Under the soft rays of sunlight filtering through the trees,
you’ll exchange vows before your loved ones in a setting filled with sacred stillness— a moment beyond words, one that will live in your hearts forever.
