當地時間5月19日中午12點，英國哈里王子與梅根在溫莎城堡圣喬治教堂舉行婚禮。浪漫之余，這場“世紀婚禮”的花費也成為了外界熱議的話題。據悉，這場英國王室婚禮的花費為4280萬美金（約合人民幣2.7億元）。哈里和梅根的婚禮雖然舉世矚目，但是他們的花費和很多豪們相比還算比較低調。我們今天一起來看看豪的婚禮們究竟有多么任性。

The Most Expensive Wedding Venue
最昂貴的婚禮地點
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.
如果你需要某個地方主持婚禮，但是街上的小教堂不行，為什么不建你自己的20000座場館呢？這是1981年，阿布扎比王儲在娶薩拉瑪公主時采取的方法。若要換做今天的美元，這場酋長的婚禮，（其中包括20個配滿寶石的，給新娘送禮物的駱駝）將花費1億美元。

The Most Expensive Wedding Cake
最昂貴的婚禮蛋糕
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.
花5200萬美元買一個結婚蛋糕怎么樣？2013，英國切斯特的一家面包店創(chuàng)造了世界上最貴的婚禮蛋糕，價值5200萬美元。在開吃之前，這八層蛋糕的點綴了超過4000顆鉆石。

The Most Expensive Engagement Rings
最昂貴的訂婚戒指
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.
幾年前，Jay Z花了500萬美元給碧昂斯買了訂婚戒指。這個戒指總共有20克拉，戒指中心的鉆石重達18克拉。但這不是最貴的戒指！瑪利亞凱莉從小派克那得到35克拉訂婚戒指，價值1000萬美元，一舉擊敗獨占鰲頭的碧昂斯。

The Most Expensive Honeymoon Suite
最貴的蜜月套房
If there's a more expensive honeymoon suite, we couldn't find it. The Royal Suite at the Hotel Plaza 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.
如果有一個更貴的蜜月套房，這就是了。在巴黎雅典娜廣場酒店的皇家套房每晚花費26000美元。房子的內部裝飾是巴黎最豪華的，在這，還可以看到有巴黎蒙田大道和埃菲爾鐵塔的。這套四居室套房的面積超過4800平方英尺。
