Support for Young Women in Their 20s and 30s Looking to Marry in the Tama Region

Located in Tokyo, the marriage counseling agency Looking Happy, operated by QONQ Co., began accepting applications for its unique support plan for young women, named "Young Women Marriage Support Plan." This initiative specifically targets women aged 23 to 33 residing in the Tama area, covering cities like Tachikawa, Hachioji, and Akishima, with applications starting on July 29, 2026.

A Plan Designed to Alleviate Concerns

This innovative plan is priced at a monthly fee of ¥5,500 (including tax) and is limited to the first 20 applicants. It aims to assist women who are considering marriage but are held back by financial concerns and the low probability of finding a partner in their local areas. The plan not only offers access to a vast network for partner searches but also grants preferential entry to the “Ome Marriage” events organized by Looking Happy in the Nishitama region.

The targeted regions for this support plan include:

- Ome City
- Hamura City
- Fussa City
- Akiruno City
- Mizuho Town
- Hinode Town
- Okutama Town
- Hachioji City
- Tachikawa City
- Akishima City

Addressing Hesitations About Counseling Services

Many individuals express reservations about joining marriage counseling agencies due to various fears such as high costs, the urgency to get married, and uncertainty about the scope of consultations. The rise of matching applications provides a relaxed environment, yet it often leads to challenges where the marriage intentions of potential partners remain unclear, causing prolonged uncertainty.

Looking Happy addresses these hurdles by creating a supportive and approachable atmosphere for the younger generation to engage in marriage-focused activities without the looming pressure. The monthly fee is maintained at an affordable rate, and certified counselors from JLCA offer personalized support throughout the entire marriage journey, from profile creation to matchmaking, courtship, and even marriage.

Combining Nationwide Search with Local Opportunities

A distinctive feature of this support plan is its combination of nationwide partner searching through the IBJ network and local marriage events like “Ome Marriage.” Finding a spouse involves not just age, occupation, income, and hobbies, but also important preferences for life after marriage, such as:

- Desire to live in the Tama area post-marriage
- The wish to maintain their current job
- A focus on staying close to family
- Considerations about future child-rearing environments

Connecting with someone from a similar locality allows for smoother discussions about commuting, living conditions, and even future family life right from the early stages of dating.

Who Will This Plan Help?

1. App users seeking genuine connections: Those who have been using matching applications but have not encountered partners wanting marriage can have a conducive environment that focuses on confirming mutual intentions.

2. Local lifestyle enthusiasts: Individuals wishing to stay in the Nishitama or Tama region post-marriage, valuing their job, family relationships, and local living preferences.

3. Cost-sensitive individuals: Candidates who are intrigued by consultancy services but have been deterred by monthly costs can take advantage of this adapted local pricing model.

Free consultations are also available prior to membership to ease worries regarding the suitability of counseling support.

Exclusive Opportunities with the “Ome Marriage” Event

Participants of this plan enjoy preferential treatment for the Nishitama region’s unique “Ome Marriage” events, which connect singles in and around Ome and Nishitama. This locality-focused marriage party creates relaxing opportunities for individuals to meet, prioritizing a comfortable setting rather than merely gathering high numbers of attendees.

Given the rising popularity of this plan, it is strictly limited to the first 20 participants to ensure that each individual receives high-quality personalized support.

Final Thoughts from the Representative

Kieko Ono, the representative counselor of Looking Happy, shares, “We understand that many young individuals are eager to find their partners yet are hesitant due to potential costs. Our support plan combines extensive search options with local marriage events to ensure comfortable and meaningful engagements. Our goal is to create a supportive environment where individuals can explore their desires for the future without pressure.”

With this initiative, Looking Happy continues to demonstrate its commitment to adapting marriage support to the evolving needs of young adults in the vibrant Tama region.
