Facebook首任总裁耗资千万举办婚礼

　　The nuptials, which reportedly cost $9 million, took place in the coastal retreat of Big Sur, California in front of 300 guests.

　　Parker, 33, had been rumoured to be planning a themed event, based on the television series Game of Thrones, for his wedding to Alexandra Lenas.

　　However, before the ceremony he said: "Sorry to disappoint, but the wardrobe we're giving guests is essentially modern. No swords or chain mail. This is not a 'theme' wedding."

　　The scene did reportedly resemble a Hollywood set with landscapers spending weeks building fake waterfalls, ruins and backdrops, and a $600,000 stone gate.

　　According to People magazine a temporary dance floor reportedly cost $350,000, and the bill for flowers and plants came to $1 million.

　　The couple's infant daughter Winter Victoria and the guests were dressed by Oscar-winning costume designer Ngila Dickson, known for her work on The Lord of the Rings films.

　　Parker's representative described it as a "romantic, magical setting," Forbes has estimated the wealth of Parker, who also co-founded music sharing site Napster in 1999, at $2 billion.

　　He was portrayed by Justin Timberlake in the 2010 movie "The Social Network".

　　据英国《每日电讯报》6月2日报道，美国社交网络Facebook公司的首任总裁肖恩·帕克（Sean Parker）与他的歌星女友举办了婚礼，而这场婚礼则是硅谷有史以来最为豪华的的婚礼之一。

　　据报道，这场婚礼耗资9百万美金，举办地点位于美国加利福尼亚大苏尔海岸寓所，有300位嘉宾共同见证这一美妙时刻。

　　一直有传闻今年33岁的帕克正在筹办一个主题婚礼，会按电视剧《权力游戏》（Games of Thrones）的情节来设计与蕾娜斯的婚礼。

　　可是在婚礼开始之前，他说道：“很抱歉让大家失望了，我们给嘉宾提供的出席服装都是很现代的，没有中世纪风格，同时这也压根不是一个‘主题式’婚礼。”

　　正如所报道的一样，婚礼的布景是好莱坞式的，由庭院设计师花费了数周的时间建造了假瀑布、废墟和舞台背景，同时还有一个造价60万美金的石门。

　　根据《人物》（People）杂志报道，婚礼搭建的临时舞池花费了35万美金，而用在购买花卉和植物的费用则更是达到了100万美金。

　　这对新婚夫妇的小女儿维特·维多利亚（Winter Victoriea）与到场嘉宾所穿的服装是由奥斯卡服装最佳设计师尼吉拉·迪克森（Ngila Dickson）设计。她以为电影《指环王》(The Lord of Ring)设计服装而出名。

　　帕克的发言人在描述这场婚礼时称，这是一个“充满着浪漫与魔幻的婚礼”。《福布斯》曾估算过帕克的身价为20亿美元。帕克曾于1999年与伙伴共同创立了音乐分享网站Napster。

　　美国著名歌手贾斯汀·汀布莱克（Justin Timberlake）于2010年电影《社交网络》中扮演肖恩·帕克。
