You're right ropura, the sultan's daughters and their husbands receive new name/title from the sultan due to the wedding. In Brunei, where the married princesses also keep their royal title while their husbands receive a title from His Majesty.
 
ropura and el-khanz,
It has been kind of you to share information about the marriage traditions in Brunei and Indonesia. I think that the Japanese Imperial family remains very orthodox in this respect. It appears that the Imperial family has no intentions of enlarging the family by bestowing titles upon future sons-in-law, who are very likely to be commoners.

Do "Mrs. Kuroda" and her husband have any children?
 
It's lovely to see Mrs Kuroda attend this event - I had no idea that the IHA had it's own music department!

Thanks for sharing photos!:flowers:
It is always a pleasure to see the Japanese Imperial family undertaking an official engagement. Her Imperial Majesty and Princess Kiko looked marvelous in kimonos. It is sad that Crown Princess Masako did not attend the autumn garden party.
 
ANP Beeldbank - The young Princess Akiko appears quite relaxed and in her element at the garden party.
 
Does anybody knows why crown princess Masako didin't attended the party?
 
Prince Mikasa was hospitalized on October 30th due to a small cardiac arrest
The prince who is 93 years old is supposed to stay at the hospital for at least three days.

Let's hope Prince Mikasa recovers soon!

Indeed, she seems! She gives a touch of youth to such a formal event. Le's hope we can see Imperial youth more often.
