 A New Meaning to: 'Take the Plunge'

The 200 Metres Wedding Dress

A Ken says he originally planned to make the dress 2008 metres long, in tribute to the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.

'But it would have been too hard to make and to handle.  So I changed the length to 200.8, and I hope the long train will bind us together forever,' he said.  Ken, of Guangzhou city, China, placed the order with a local factory who took nearly three months to complete the dress, reports the Guangzhou Daily.

Another Lovely, Even Longer Dress for The Bride

The bride from Guangzhou, China set the world's longest bridal train record at 219 yards

A Chinese bride accented her gown with a train that was over 600 ft long and weighed over 220 lbs. Xie Qiyun had this photos taken in front of a hotel in Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong Province on her special day.

According to Guinness, the longest wedding dress train measured 1362 m [4468 ft 5.94 in] and was created by Andreas Evstratiou in Paphos, Cyprus, in February 2007

And To Top That - Another Chinese Bride 

Stunning one-and-a-half mile wedding dress

A Chinese bride is hoping to get her name in the record books after getting married in a 1.4 mile-long wedding dress.
More than 200 guests took over three hours to unroll Lin Rong's wedding train and pin on 9,999 red silk roses for her wedding Will and Guy have learned . Groom Zhao Peng, aged 28, a railway worker from northeast Jilin province, China, said he wanted to challenge the current world record of 1,579 metres. His family was initially not too impressed at the £3,500 cost.

Lin Rong, the bride, reportedly laughed and cried at the romantic gesture.

Zhao bought the materials and asked his relatives for help in making the wedding dress by hand, which took three months to finish.

Bride Wears Dress Made of Wool

Shepherdess Louise Fairburn loves her sheep - so got married in a woollen wedding dress made entirely from shearing some of her own flock.

Louise also carried a Bo-beep style crook instead of a bouquet, guests were given chocolate sheep-shaped favours and the ring bearer's cushion was made from a fleece. Mrs Fairburn, amazed guests with the unique gown she designed herself made with wool from one of her Lincoln Longwools called 'Olivia'. She extended the woolly theme to the rest of her big day with groom Ian, 42, also wearing a woollen waistcoat made from one of the couple's flock.

Wife Carrying World Championships

Will and Guy have discovered that Wife Carrying World Championships take place in Sonkajarvi in Finland. Apparently the wife doesn't have to be your own since the contest is based on an old tradition when it was not uncommon for men to steal women from neighbouring villages.

It seems that wife carrying competitions have spread from their origins in Finland to become a global phenomenon.  It seems that the wife has to be carried a distance of precisely 253.5 meters or 278 yards in American events.
