Japan is looking to promote Okinawa Prefecture in India as a wedding tourism destination as one of its initiatives to woo Indian tourists to the country.

Setting its sights on India's outbound wedding market, mainly driven by wealthy individuals in the country, the Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO) is organizing a seminar to showcase Okinawa as a destination to local wedding planners.

"We are planning to invite around 30 to 40 wedding planners from Delhi on July 6," said Kenichi Takano, executive director of the Delhi office of the organization. "A team from Okinawa will be there to showcase Okinawa to the wedding planners."
