:yes:yes i totally agree

but the media, they never grow up, especially with this kind of private-celeb-related news, ayu will make the headline in japan for the whole 1st week in 2011 !!

So it all was intimate and not public and glamurous, I prefer it this way ^^

So happy for ayu, I trust her, if she has done it, it's because she feels sure about it, Im not gonna say this is a rush, because that's the way she lives, she lives in a roller coaster xD.

Long live the queen and her new and last love!

Speechless. :( Just want Mannie to treat Ayu well and give her happiness.

That is so sweet! I'm really glad she was open about it with TA.

lol I think from the pictures that she was in jeans and a t-shirt xDDDD

I'm coming to terms with the marriage, really I am....it just came so fast and out of left field that I think I'm in shock! :tired Seriously my heart is feeling tight right abut now *_*

It feels really out of character but at the same time isn't this so Ayu?

Oh my goddd they did it already?? That is sooo amazing! I'm so happy for her <3

Their rings awwwwwwwwwww

Speechless...

Thanks misa-chan!:)

Congrats ayu!!!:)

Adorable picture!
Thank you!

I was surprised by all this too and when i read her Twitter page, i often use the function in the ipad app to translate her posts into English. The other day before all this happened, there was one that translated into 'Thank you Mommy'. Perhaps she had been speaking to her mum about it and she (Ayu's mum) gave her advice or said that she was okay with the whole thing?

Just a thought I wanted to put out there.

I think lots of people have their process of marriage mixed up bad.

A registration and a ceremony are not the same thing.

The wedding ceremony is not over. What they have done so far is register their marriage, which means they are legally married by law, they have a piece of paper to prove it and whatever. But that is not the ceremony itself. The ceremony with all the big dresses and flowers and stuff is a celebration, and can take place anytime after the registration. Knowing ayu, she will definitely have a nice wedding and wear her beautiful gowns, but sometime in the future when she is more settled down definitely.

I mean, if the news articles I've read are true, they're not even going to be living together even though they're now married. That just goes to show that though they may be ready to pladge their love, they're not ready to settle yet. The ceremony will probably only take place late in the future when they're both ready. So we'll have to wait for that.

So yes, point I'm trying to make is, the wedding ceremony hasn't even occurred yet, so no point freaking out about how you couldn't see the dress she wore/photos/whatever. :P

Ooh... Apparently the marriage is now in the history books...

omg

@ Chibinina4: Clears up all the rumours about how Hamasaki Ayumi isn't her original name. :P

Yeah like my sister for example, did the legal stuff like a month an a half before she actually had the ceremony.

me too. but on the other hand I understand how she didn't want all that Japanese media attention and paparazzi to constantly follow up the whole ceremony and then hunting for the couple pics


I feel the same. I'm not God to judge and tell people what to do and how to behave, but I feel like this is not going to end up good. not because I'm an idiot fan (sorry, I've been supporting her for 7 years, despite the fact I hated some stuff she released periodically). I'm just really worried and I want the best for her

it's love, you never know :)

to those saying, that she's smart etc, yes, she is, but love sometimes makes the smartest people the most stupid and drives them mad so they make mistakes also

not feeling good about this

a person at aramatheydidnt LJ called Mannie a "beaded eurotrash". sorry offended ayufans, but I somewhat agree to this quote. that how he looks to me. he looks worthless. and she's high-class

I wonder how Nagase feels. I watched a video of his Countdown Johnny's concert and he looked a bit depressed.

yeah watch that too...maybe he was shocked

He already knew? Ayu said it at 3:00 ~ The concert lasted so far?

Ouaa, it's ... Strange xD We can see the "online act" ..
Thanks for this ^^

Wow... what a fast registry :P Congratulations ayu and manuel :)
