福克斯新闻 来一场特别的军婚吧

Fox on Love with Ashley Papa: Attend a military wedding and experience rituals not found in civilian¹ weddings.

Sheldon Suga, VP and managing director of Hawks² Cay Resort, which hosts many military weddings, says military couples incorporate more pageantry and patriotism³ in their ceremonies: "A lot of them tend to focus on, you know, a military style wedding, whether it's wearing military attire⁴ or having sabers, you know, to do an aisle⁵ presentation." It's more about traditions than rules.

And as beautiful as military weddings are, Suga says couples may face more challenges in the planning process: "Someone gets assigned to do training somewhere or someone is on deployment⁶ and so sometimes we see it's only one partner actually involved with the planning."

Destination weddings can benefit military couples because they serve as the honeymoon⁷ spot, too: "We use our wedding planners to set up things. They have the contacts. So, it makes it a lot easier for them." It's all about the love and patriotism.

With FOX on Love this Wedding season, I'm Ashley Papa.

欢迎大家和阿什利·帕帕一起走进福克斯爱的专题：参加一场军婚，体验寻常婚礼上体验不到的地方。

鹰岩度假酒店的副总裁兼总经理谢尔顿·苏伽就主持过多场军婚，他说，军人夫妇往他们的婚礼仪式中加入了更多的壮丽和爱国主义色彩：“很多军人夫妇都倾向于选择部队风格的婚礼，无论是在婚礼致辞时穿军装，还是佩戴军刀。”

比起规章制度，军婚更注重的是传统。

苏伽还说，尽管军人风格的婚礼华丽无比，新人们在筹备婚礼时可能会遇到比常人更多的问题：因为其中一方可能被派到别的地方训练去了，或者有任务，所以有时候，真正筹备的其实只是其中一方。

对于军人新人来说，目的地婚礼是一个不错的选择，因为举办婚礼的同时可以顺便把蜜月给度了：“我们会派我们婚礼筹备的工作人员安排好一切事务。新人们可以和他们沟通。这样筹备起来新人来说要容易得多。”整个婚礼都要洋溢着爱情和爱国情怀。
