Heave comes the bride!

Dream Wedding Must Haves (only for ppl with BIG ambitions)
- 17-year-old groom
- Pink Glass Carriage (Disney's influence?)
- Burn a hole in daddy's pocket with a dress that cost a whopping £25,000!

- Wear a 30-layer chiffon gown (think hot, sweat, perspire)
- This gown that must weigh at least 160kg (25 stone)
- Preferably a 18m (60 feet) long train with 3,000 Swarovski crystals

"16-year old Carly O'Brien had to be pushed down the aisle by family and friends present on her wedding day because of the size of her wedding gown. Before this, Carly's relatives took about 9½ hours to help her into her dress.

Carly was more than an hour 'fashionably late' for her groom, Michael Coffey (17 years old) because her gown made her stuck at the St. Peter's Catholic Church entrance."


I heard about this on the radio this morning. 16 yr old Carly & 17 yr old Michael got married last Friday (3 days ago). So, this news is still quite hot.

Since I was too curious to see how the bride will look in her super huge dress, I've decided to check it out on the net. Hehe. I think it's worth sharing this interesting find with you guys, so... here goes!

Carly in her pink glass carriage outside the church.
Everyone who was present has to help push her down the aisle. Her dress was so enormous, her dad (Frank, 40 yrs old) has to walk behind her (no space mah!)
After the wedding, Carly was so exhausted that she had to be carried out by 14 relatives and her groom. (Gosh, who wouldn't be, right? This dress weighs a freakin' 160kg!)
Good luck, Michael. Hope you guys live happily ever after!



NO THANKS to weddings for me if I have to have one like Carly's. I'll rather stay 'comfortably' in spinsterhood. =P
