婚礼对大多数新人来说只有一次，也是一生中最重要最幸福的时刻，每对新人也都想让自己的婚礼能够受到婚礼现场亲朋好友的关注。可是你有没有想过，如果参加婚礼的亲朋好友都拿着手机忙拍照、录视频，那么参加婚礼的真正意义何在，难道仅仅是为了留些照片或视频作为以后的回忆?

现在在国外流行一种叫做“不插电婚礼”的婚礼形式，新人在请柬上写明：在婚礼仪式上请不要使用手机。也许国内对“不插电婚礼”了解较少，这种婚礼形式在国内还比较少见。为方便大家理解，美加英语在这里用中英文来介绍“不插电婚礼”。
Unplugged weddings are becoming very popular in the UK and have great
advantages for all involved in the wedding. An unplugged wedding simply means
that you’ve politely asked your guests not to use phones, cameras or other
devices during your wedding or at least during the wedding service or
ceremony.
不插电婚礼现在在英国非常流行，而且对所有在场的人都有意义。简单说来，不插电婚礼就是礼貌性地要求亲朋好友在整个婚礼或至少在结婚仪式期间不要用手机、相机或其他的电子设备。
So there you are at the altar, gazing into the eyes of your beloved, saying
your vows. You turn to sneak a glance at your wedding guests, all your favorite
beloved friends and family… and are greeted by a sea of down-turned faces
staring at their LCD screens.
你站在婚礼圣坛上，凝视着你的爱人，说着你的婚礼誓言。当你转过头不经意看了一眼婚礼来宾，你所有的亲朋好友都在哪里，然后你看到的是一片低着头看屏幕的“脑”海。
When your photos come back from your wedding photographer, all your guest
shots include your favorite people staring at their favorite devices. People are
smiling, but they're all staring at little screens.
婚礼摄影师把婚礼照片传回来的时候，所有跟宾客有关的照片里你的亲人们都在盯着他们心爱的电子设备。他们都在微笑，只不过都在盯着屏幕。
While many churches have no camera policies, more and more couples are
considering an unplugged wedding — at the very least, asking guests to turn off
their devices during the ceremony and be really “present”.
虽然很多教堂没有对相机有限制规定，不过越来越多的夫妇开始考虑不插电婚礼——至少要求宾客在婚礼仪式期间关闭电子设备，做到真正“在场”。
国外的“不插电婚礼”，是不是类似中国古代传统婚礼。那时婚礼上亲朋好友的焦点都在新人的身上，没有手机拍照留念，似乎更能体现婚礼的真正意义。
