They look very happy. 
Shinto-style wedding is pure and mysterious and beautiful high magnificent. There is a quaint and venerable, Shinto-style weddings are popular recently. It is a privilege of the Japanese.
I drew a oracle. The written oracle [fortune] said that I would have the best of luck ! I hope my dream comes true this year.
