Description

An unidentified bride and groom (centre) happily make their way through a room crowded with well-wishers, as they leave their wedding reception. Confetti is being thrown at the couple by the wedding guests. The couple were married in a chapel in Japan. The groom is probably a member of the British Army, and the British Commonwealth Forces Korea (BCFK). Included amongst the guests are civilians and army officers. In the foreground (right) is an unidentified Australian Army captain in dress uniform, who was the best man at the wedding ceremony. Facing him (left) is a lieutenant colonel from the Royal Australian Infantry.
