YAE Kimono Rental was absolutely fantastic! The whole process was very smooth: they had staff to help us select/put on/take off the kimono, and there was nothing we had to worry about. Our photographer took LOTS of beautiful and professional photos for us, and the photo editing service was fantastic, too. We absolutely enjoyed our day with the kimono in Asakusa; even some American/European foreigners stopped us to take selfies! It was one of the highlights of our Tokyo trip. Special shoutout to our photographer. She was very professional and very patient with our kids. She knows how to make kids smile and laugh. Thank you for capturing these beautiful moments for my family!

I had the best time ever doing this! The staff was so helpful helping me pick out a kimono, accessories, and a hairstyle. Even just this part would make it worth it, but then I got my photos taken and it blew me out of the water. My photographer, K, was so wonderful and funny- every smile in my photos were genuine! I had such a great time even just talking to her. Not to mention, she also took the BEST photos!! I 100/10 recommend this. You must do it! (P.S. Thank you, K!)

Very beautiful selection of yukata and kimono. We rented ours to go to a summer festival. They have children's sizes as well. From choosing your yukata, to dressing, to hair, everything is done with such care! My daughter and I really enjoyed the experience. Have not felt that beautiful since my wedding day. The location is right next to the Asakusa train station and is walking distance to Kappabashi street.

This place is lovely! The staff is so sweet, welcoming, and fun, and their system is very organized. Their hair stylists are super talented, fun, and fast. Don't forget to do your own makeup before coming there, I think they do hair only. You come out looking and feeling gorgeous and highly recommend do it with the photograohy option. Photos are taken outdoors, lots of pretty spots all walkable (hydrate if in summer!) Upon arriving, take elevator up I think to the third floor, it's clearly labelled outside on ground floor as well. The Asakusa and Ginza lines on train are stone's throw away from studio. Can taxi or train there. In Asakusa neighborhood, by Sensoji Temple. Saw couples n fams there too, my family opted out but I'm glad I did this! Photos come back in a week for you to download within 30 days and of these you send back the ones you want as finished/edited final products depending on what package you choose. Just did my seasion two days ago, so awaiting my pics in a week or so. It was very hot and you are layered up in the yukata dress (they dress you) and kimono is option but heavier less breathable fabric I was advised to wear yukata lighter weight but you still have slip, base layer, possible towels or other wraps inside before the main layer goes on. Vending machines easy on street level once you are out taking pics ao easy to grab some cold water etc if you dont have with you.
