Abstract

The characteristics and types of food served at wedding ceremonies of the Shimazu household in Kyushu are described.<BR>Shimazu wedding ceremonies were different from those of other major households. Food was served after exchanging sake cups. Zoni (a kind of mochi soup) and five kinds of kezurimono were included on the wedding menu. Jinchu (five-color rice), and tegake (a kind of kezurimono) and tokokazari (an alcove ornament) cannot be found at the wedding ceremonies of other important feudal lords. Thus, the Shimazu ceremonies were clearly different, although they were simplified over the years.
