Crimson dress made of 9,999 red roses
Groom-to-be Xiao Fan had a dress made of 9,999 red roses for his bride-to-be, Yin Mi, which allowed him to propose to his betrothed in style at the Chime-Long Paradise Amusement Park in Guangdong, China. In Chinese custom, the phonetic pronunciation of the number ’9′ sounds like the Chinese word for ‘forever’ which is what Mr. Fan hopes his marriage will be if he’s lucky. via Hungeree.
