World's Longest Wedding Dress

A Chinese couple set to marry today are also setting the world's record for longest wedding dress train. Measuring at 200.8 meters (658 feet), the dress' length, according to the groom, is a nod to the upcoming 2008 Olympic games in Beijing. In addition to having the dress of her dreams, the bride is doing her part to reduce her carbon footprint in China's notoriously overpolluted environs, what with the Chinese no longer needing to build an actual track as her train will be a lovely substitution. Well, that was the plan until the couple, pictured above in their wedding finery, was mistaken for an alien crop circle and removed by the government for "safety precautions."
