The Most Expensive Wedding Venue
最昂贵的婚礼地点
If you need somewhere to host your wedding and the little chapel down the street just won't do, why not build your own 20,000-seat stadium? That's the approach the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi took in 1981 when he married Princess Salama. In today's dollars, the sheikh's wedding（which also included 20 bejeweled camels delivering gifts to the bride），would cost $100 million.
如果你需要某个地方主持婚礼，但是街上的小教堂不行，为什么不建你自己的20000座场馆呢？这是1981年，阿布扎比王储在娶萨拉玛公主时采取的方法。若要换做今天的美元，这场酋长的婚礼， （其中包括20个配满宝石的，给新娘送礼物的骆驼）将花费1亿美元。
The Most Expensive Wedding Cake
最昂贵的婚礼蛋糕
How about $52 million for a wedding cake? In 2013, a bakery in Chester, England created the world's most expensive wedding cake, valued at $52 million. The eight-tiered cake featured more than 4,000 diamonds before it was de-diamonded (we hope) and eaten.

Jay Z spent $5 million on the engagement ring he gave Beyonce several years ago. The ring totaled 20 carats and included an 18-carat diamond in the center. But that's not the most expensive ring on the list! Mariah Carey knocked Queen B from the top spot with an estimated $10 million, 35-carat engagement ring from James Packer.

最贵的蜜月套房
If there's a more expensive honeymoon suite, we couldn't find it. The Royal Suite at the Hotel
Plaza5 Athenee in Paris will set you back $26,000 per night. Inside, it's Parisian luxury at its finest, with a view of Avenue Montaigne and the Eiffel Tower. The four-bedroom suite measures more than 4,800 square feet.
