Plus-Size Weddings with a difference!

Extravagent cake!So you’re a plus-size bride or groom. You already know you need to sort out your dress or suit. If you’re a bride you’ve probably had the image of your perfect dress in your head for years, and if you’re a groom… well let’s be honest, you men will more than likely hire the first suit that fits!

But what about EVERYTHING else?

100% People have been researching far and wide to find Plus-Size weddings with a difference. The happy couple may not be plus-size but their weddings certainly are! If you fancy going all out and want to size up your BIG day then read on!

Wedding cakes are always judged by the guests. ‘Oh fruit-cake? How plain.’ or ‘Chocolate cake at a wedding? Ridiculous!’ Well a bride from Texas, America decided that she’d definitely get tongues wagging! The 35-year-old more than set the bench-mark for most outrageous cake, buy commissioning the wedding cake to be a life-size replica of herself! It took five weeks to make and weighed 400lbs, that’s 28 and a half stone! The most ridiculous part of it all was, the happy couple were only renewing their vowels!

Our next discovery leads us to a bride who on her wedding day weighed over 25 stone. Ah our first plus-size bride you say? No not exactly, more like plus-size dress! The teen bride from North Wales, Catrina Nolan’s dress weighed a staggering 19 stone! Purchased for a modest £6000, the 40ft wide dress caused havoc on Catrina’s big day! It took her 10 minutes to walk up the path to the church door. She finally gave in and took off ten of the twenty under-skirts at the reception!

Keeping on the theme of the wedding dress, earlier this year a bride from China did her very best to break the world record for the longest wedding dress train! She had guests running all over the place keeping the monster train looking perfect. The final measurement read 219 yards. And if you aren’t sure exactly how long that is try imagining two football fields put together!

If money’s no object one can only imagine the extravagance you could go to when planning a wedding. The most expensive wedding in the world took place in June 2004. Billionaire, Lakshmi Mittal reportedly spent over £30 million on his daughters wedding! Vanisha Mittal and her husband Amit Bhatia married in France; they were joined by over 1000 guests from all over the world. Vanisha reportedly asked her father to buy her the Eiffel Tower! That’s one special wedding gift!
