When you usually accept a wedding invitation, your only worries are showing up at the right time, choosing your outfit, and picking up the perfect gift while you're at it. Those who agreed to take part in Elena De Angelis wedding had a more important role than you might expect: everyone had to carry the 1.8 mile (over 3 kilometers) long veil on their way to the church. As you might expect, this wasn't a close friends and family type wedding; more than 600 people took part in this record breaking event and all of them got a chance to touch this magnificent part of the bridal outfit.
This special wedding took place in Naples, Italy and the happy couple Elena de Angelis and Ferdinand Pucci needed the help of Gianni Molaro Campania, a famous Italian designer. Hundreds of people were assigned with the difficult task of creating this veil and they used over 3.6 miles of material in the process. The wedding took the village of Casal di Princice by surprise and everyone seemed to have a clear role. The couple took a classical car ride towards the church and the villagers helped with the veil along the way. If you want to put it into perspective, this headpiece was longer than 7 Empire State Buildings put together or about as long as the Golden Gate Bridge. The Guinness Book of World Records is said to confirm the record in the next few days, which means that it will take a while until another bride comes up with an even longer veil on her special day.
The only thing the bride didn't share is if the search for the perfect veil was longer than the search for the perfect wedding dress , but considering the amount of planning behind this feat, it is safe to say that the headpiece was the priority for Elena De Angelis.
