摘要

Everyone all over the world thinks about a wedding as one of the most important events in their life. Both a wedding ceremony and a wedding trip are very special for every ethnic group in every country. For example, in Japan, about 750,000 couples get married and about 388,000 couples have a wedding ceremony and party per year. The current wedding market in Japan is worth almost US$4B. If space tourism will open the door for wedding opportunities, it must be exhilarating for everyone. Suborbital space weddings are for people who would like to have a wedding with a unique microgravity experience and a great Earth view.This experience could be realized within a few years, at the very beginning of commercial suborbital space flights.
