In a bit of kitschy news, a groom in the northeastern region of Jilin province, China surprised his bride with a dress featuring a 1.2 mile long train, reported Reuters.

It took the bridal party -- who did more "to have and to hold" than the couple -- over three hours to unfurl the gown that included 9,999 red silk roses scattered along the lengthy extension of her dress.

The couple has applied for the Guinness World record.

Groom Zhao Peng was inspired after seeing the former Romanian record holder's dress with a train length of just under a mile, cites the source.

We'd like to see someone attempt to beat that!

With the generous fabric, the dress certainly doesn't come cheap. Peng's family originally opposed the $5,856 price tag, but it was worth it when bride Lin Rong laughed and cried over the "romantic gesture," according to Reuters. (With all that material, it seems like they could have worked in a little shapewear, no?)

We hope they have an equally long marriage!

Now, if only there were a toilet paper roll big enough to make a replica of that train!
