Royal Wedding Viewing Party

Read Now
 
The British Chamber of Commerce in Japan (BCCJ) invites you on May 19, 2018, to celebrate one of the biggest British events of the year: The Royal Wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Date: 
May 19, 2018 
Time: 19:00 - 21:30​
Location: The Conrad Tokyo​
Registration and cancellation deadline: May 7, Monday, Noon.
Register at: https://www.bccjapan.com/events/2018/5/royal-wedding-party/

On May 19 2018, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will exchange wedding vows at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle. Official invitations were printed and sent to 600 wedding guests on March 22. Have you received your invitation in the post? If not, do not fear! 

Buoyed by Kensington Palace's statement that the happy couple are looking forward to "sharing their celebrations with the public", the BCCJ is very pleased to host its "Royal Wedding Viewing Party" on the evening of May 19, in Tokyo.

Thanks to the BBC, we will enjoy live coverage of the big event on screens around the venue, against a dazzling night-time backdrop of Royal Hamarikyu Gardens and Tokyo Bay, from The Conrad Tokyo's 28th floor.

Guests will enter the "wedding reception" on a transparent glass and granite pebbled passageway that offers peep holes into the behind-the-scenes kitchen action. Once seated, they will be treated to a selection of modern British-inspired fayre, and mouth-watering drinks package.
