- Chinese bride wears world's longest wedding dress
- October 5, 2009 | 0 Responses
When Lin Rong started planning her wedding, she had more than one thing on her mind. Not only was she planning the wedding of her dreams to the man she had fallen in love with, but she was planning to get herself into the Guinness book of records for the world’s longest wedding dress.
The idea was originally developed by the brides’ groom Zhao Peng. Peng had been inspired by a record breaking attempt in April, when he saw a Romanian bride. “I did not want a cliché wedding parade or banquet, not can I afford the extravagance of a hot balloon wedding.”
The creation of the dress started three months prior to the wedding and was made by Peng’s family. His aunt is a dress maker, she agreed to make and design the dress and other family members were enlisted to source dress patterns and various other materials. Peng purchased the materials costing him 40,000 yuan (just over £3,500). Pengs mother initially felt that the ideas was “a waste of money in my opinion. Though I understand that he wants to show his love on the big day.”
25 year old bride Lin Rong laughed and cried at what she felt was a romantic gesture. The dress had 9,999 red silk roses stitched onto it, along with 608 crystals to represent the couples number of dating days and took 200 wedding guests, 3 hours to roll out the dress and pink on the red silk roses.
