Brides everywhere ready for 12/12/12 wedding date This Wednesday is very popular because the date is December 12, 2012 – 12/12/12. Wednesdays aren't usually popular days to have a wedding, but this Wednesday is very popular because the date is December 12, 2012 – 12/12/12. We caught up with one bride, who, like thousands of others around the globe, will be tying the knot in two days. Deborah Thomas is trying on dresses for her wedding in two days. She wants the dress to be perfect. "It's a little bit too much bling for what I like. I like something very simple and elegant." She and her fiancé chose December, specifically the 12th of December for their wedding, because of the numbers 12/12/12. Deborah and her ex-husband will be re-married on this iconic date -- this time for good. The two are not alone. 12/12/12 is a very popular date for weddings and the last of this type of repeating numbers for the century. Beside the interesting numbers, for Deborah and Adam, the date holds extra meaning. "That was the day we met. We actually met at a Christmas party and... he lost a game of pool so he had to take me to dinner," says Deborah. Many other couples will be doing the same thing. "43 percent of brides want to get married on an iconic day such as 12/12/12. it's an important date for fiancés to remember. They like the numbers, they feel it's lucky," says Mandy Sommer, David's Bridal. And because Deborah believes it's bad luck for the groom to see the bride in her dress before the wedding, Deborah wants Adam, who may be watching, to know this: "The ones we tried on today are not what we picked out… I didn't want him to see me in the actual dress." Some believe 12/12/12 signifies the universe's entering Age of Aquarius, a time believed to bring harmony, understanding, and peace to earth, all important qualities for a good marriage. 周三本不是結(jié)婚的“旺日”,但本周三全球卻迎來(lái)了結(jié)婚潮,因?yàn)榍》?012年12月12日(12/12/12)。 我們聯(lián)系到將在這天結(jié)婚的一位新娘,全球?qū)⒂袛?shù)萬(wàn)人在這一天結(jié)婚。 黛博拉-托馬斯正在為兩天內(nèi)的婚禮試穿婚紗。她想要一套完美的婚紗。 “對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)這套婚紗太閃亮了,我想要簡(jiǎn)單一些、優(yōu)雅一些的婚紗?!?/SPAN> 她和她的未婚夫選擇了12月12日舉行婚禮,因?yàn)檫@一天是“12/12/12”。 黛博拉和她的前夫?qū)⒃谶@有紀(jì)念意義的一天復(fù)婚,而這次婚姻將是永恒。 有很多新人選擇在這一天結(jié)婚。2012年12月12日掀起了結(jié)婚潮,這一天也是本世紀(jì)最后一個(gè)年月日重復(fù)的日期。 除了日期有紀(jì)念意義外,對(duì)黛博拉和亞當(dāng)來(lái)說(shuō),這一天還有其他含義。 黛博拉說(shuō):“這也是我們初遇的日子。我們其實(shí)是在一場(chǎng)圣誕派對(duì)上遇見(jiàn)的,他玩兒游戲輸了,因此要請(qǐng)我吃晚餐?!?/SPAN> 還有眾多新人選擇在這一天結(jié)婚。 大衛(wèi)的新娘曼迪-薩默說(shuō):“43%的新娘想在有紀(jì)念意義的一天結(jié)婚,比如2012年12月12日。這是未婚夫要銘記的重要的一天。他們喜歡這個(gè)日期,感覺(jué)這一天很幸運(yùn)?!?/SPAN> 因?yàn)轺觳├J(rèn)為新郎在婚禮前看見(jiàn)新娘穿著婚紗很不吉利,因此她想讓也許正在觀望的亞當(dāng)知道:“我們今天試穿的婚紗不是我們選出的婚服,我不想讓他看到我穿著當(dāng)天婚紗的樣子?!?/SPAN> 有些人認(rèn)為12/12/12象征著宇宙進(jìn)入了“寶瓶宮時(shí)段”,人們認(rèn)為這一時(shí)段會(huì)帶來(lái)和諧、理解、地球的和平、以及對(duì)一段美好的婚姻生活來(lái)說(shuō)所有重要的特性。 Vocabulary: Age of Aquarius: 寶瓶宮時(shí)段(預(yù)示世界和平與和諧);水瓶紀(jì)元 |
