KOKUHAKU-SHIKI
CEREMONY

Now is the time to share the words that linger in your heart with someone special.

A touching moment of the confession ceremony

The feelings hidden in your heart finally overflow into words. Each moment deeply engraves itself in your heart and that of your loved one, becoming a special time that remains forever. Against the beautiful backdrop of Shodoshima Movie Village, this place where past and present intersect turns words into a story that forms new bonds.

砂時計

KOKUHAKU is not just limited to a proposal, but extends to moments when you feel deep affection, when you wish to express gratitude in a relationship, or when two people who are already married reaffirm their love for each other. It carries more weight than the words spoken in everyday life. By conducting it as a ceremony, it transforms into something more solemn and meaningful. This is a sacred moment when two hearts unite as one. In the calm silence embraced by nature, the emotions captured in photos and videos become an eternal memory, expressing feelings that words alone cannot convey. The words spoken here will not fade away into the wind, but will continue to resonate in your hearts forever.

和服の格好

At Shodoshima Movie Village, dressed in traditional Japanese attire, you will feel like the protagonist of a film, capturing the emotions of that moment. Whether lovers, married couples, friends, or two people beyond gender, any form of love is possible here. Deliver a special confession to your loved one, in a private and intimate setting.

In Japan, there is a traditional culture of confessing love, but it is rare to carry it out as a ceremony. However, we have elevated this important moment into a ritual. We invite people from countries without a culture of confession to experience the traditional Japanese confession. From declarations of love to expressions of gratitude, convey your heartfelt feelings to your loved one, and etch them into your hearts forever. The words you leave in your heart are awaited by the person most important to you.—perhaps that moment is now.

How the Kokuhaku-Shiki Works

1. Reservation
Please book via email or DM (X, Instagram, etc.). Let us know if your partner is aware of the confession or if it will be a surprise. We are here to support your story and make the moment unforgettable.

2. Confirm Your Stay
We will adjust the best filming time based on your stay in Shodoshima, including your return trip and accommodation. We will help you plan the schedule with enough time to ensure a smooth experience.

3. Choose Your Course
Choose from the following plans based on your preferences:

– Light Plan (approx. 45 minutes)
A quick plan that captures the necessary scenes naturally in a short amount of time.

– Premium Plan (approx. 90 minutes)
A longer plan that allows you to capture your story with care. We can also accommodate requests for specific locations and setups.

4. Preparing Your Outfit
Outfits are available for free rental, but you are welcome to bring your own special attire. Whether it’s traditional Japanese clothing, casual wear, or a special occasion dress, join us in the outfit that best reflects your feelings.

5. Filming on the Day
On the day of the ceremony, a professional photographer will capture your special moments in a relaxed setting. Even if you think, “I can’t be the star of a movie…”, don’t worry. Our camera will beautifully capture you both in your natural state.
In addition, the Premium Plan offers the option of aerial drone footage, adding a unique perspective to your special moment.

6. Data Delivery
We will send you the footage within approximately two weeks. Additionally, upon request, we can issue a “Confession Certificate” to preserve your special moment forever in a tangible form.

Special Requests
In the 90-minute Premium Plan, we can accommodate specific requests like “I want to shoot this scene” or “I want to confess here”. We aim to tailor the shooting to your unique story.

Natural and Beautiful Moments
Even if you think, “This might be too much for me…” don’t worry. Our professional photographers will bring out your natural moments. In fact, the couple featured in the video promotion above were first-time participants, but were able to relax and have their natural beauty captured. Just be yourselves, and a moving video will come together.
