地道美語聽力播客716: 策劃婚禮（雙語）

Seamus: What’s that?
西米斯：那是什么？
Cathy: It’s a planning book for our wedding.
凱絲：這是我們婚禮的策劃書。
Seamus: We aren’t getting married for a year and a half.
西米斯：我們還有一年半的時間才會結(jié)婚呢。
Cathy: I know, but there are so many things to plan. We have to book the hall far in advance, you know, and once we set the date, we have to send out save-the-date notifications to our friends and family.
凱絲：我知道，但是有很多事需要計劃。我們需要很久前預(yù)定婚禮大廳，你知道，一旦我們確定時間，我們就得給朋友和家人發(fā)出結(jié)婚邀請函。
Seamus: I thought that the point of putting off the wedding until we finish school is to take the pressure off and allow us time to plan – later.
西米斯：我認為我們推遲婚禮，直到我們完成學(xué)業(yè)的原因是這樣能夠消除我們壓力，能夠有時間計劃婚禮。
Cathy: It is, but it’s never too early to start planning for a wedding. I’m meeting with a wedding coordinator next week to get the ball rolling.
凱絲：是的，但是現(xiàn)在策劃我們的婚禮一點也不早。下周我會見一個婚禮籌辦人，開始婚禮策劃。
Seamus: A wedding coordinator?! We don’t need a wedding coordinator. We can make all of the arrangements ourselves.
西米斯：婚禮籌辦人？我們不需要婚禮籌辦人。我們可以自己策劃所有的安排。
Cathy: You have no idea what goes into pulling off a wedding and reception. There are caterers, photographers and videographers, entertainers, ice sculptors, animal trainers (you know, for the swans and the doves), and...
凱絲：你不知道怎樣順利完成婚禮以及招待客人。他們是酒席承辦人、攝像師、錄像人員、 表演人員、冰雕刻師、動物訓(xùn)練師（你知道，為了放天鵝和鴿子），還有……  
Seamus: Are you serious?! You’re not planning a wedding. You’re starting a circus!
西米斯：你是認真的？你不是在策劃婚禮。你是在開馬戲團！
