2010-12-01来源:和谐英语

  Couple Mark and Denise Duffield Thomas said "I do" 85 times, breaking the world record, in just six months.

  一对夫妇马克和和丹尼丝 杜菲尔德 托马斯在六个月内举行了85场婚礼,打破了世界记录。

  Mark, from Cheshire, UK, and Denise, from Australia, met as students in Manchester in July 2002. They married for the first time at Ufton Court, near Reading, Berks, in 2008.

  马克来自英国柴郡,丹尼丝来自澳大利亚,2002年7月,还是学生的他们首次见面。2008年,他们在伯克郡里丁市附近的阿夫顿法院举行第一次婚礼。

  Last year they spotted the competition for the Runaway Bride and Groom Company of Ireland on the internet and won against 30,000 other entrants.

  去年他们参加爱尔兰一家新婚蜜月公司"逃跑新郎新娘公司"的网上竞赛,从三万对参赛新婚夫妇中脱颖而出。

  They gave up their marketing jobs in London and started their new "career". Six months later they have finished the last leg of their trip in Australia with an aboriginal ceremony in Queensland - adorned with face paint and cockatoo feathers.

  他们放弃了在伦敦的市场营销的工作,开始了新的"婚礼之旅"。六个月后他们在澳大利亚完成最后一场婚礼。在那场澳大利亚昆士兰举行的土著传统婚礼上,这对夫妇的脸上涂满了油彩,头上插上鹦鹉羽毛。

  "We're the happiest couple in the world," said Denise, 31. "Every day has been a honeymoon in the past six months."

  31岁的马克说:"(我想)我们是世界上最幸福的夫妇,在过去6个月的每一天里我们都在度蜜月!"

  They began on May 25 by marrying five times in 48 hours in New York - at the Waldorf Astoria hotel, the top of the Empire State Building, in a taxi and twice in Central Park.

  今年五月,在48小时内,托马斯夫妇在美国纽约市先后举办了5次婚礼,一次是在纽约瓦多夫 阿斯托里亚高档宾馆中举行的,一次是在纽约帝国大厦的顶楼举行的,还有一次是在出租车上举行,另外两次是在中央公园举行的。
