“伴娘出租”是中国江西省一位名叫程飞的婚庆策划从业者的最新业务,并且这项业务非常受欢迎。

"At least 15 couples have come to ask about hiring bridesmaids in the last ten days. Eight have placed orders, each demanding four to eight bridesmaids," said Cheng. "Usually we ask our female staff to take up the role, but if the clients request, say, better-looking girls, we can meet their demands." Each bridesmaid is paid 100 to 200 yuan per day.
程飞表示:“在过去的十天里,至少有15对新人来咨询过租借伴娘。其中8对已经下了订单,他们每对新人都要求有4到8个伴娘。一般我们都找自己的女性员工来扮演这个角色,但是如果客户有要求,比如说,漂亮的女孩儿,我们就要满足他们的要求。”据悉,每个伴娘每天能得到100到200元的酬劳。
With a growing number of young couples choosing to have a group of blushing bridesmaids, the for-hire business looks promising 6.
随着越来越多的年轻人选择在婚礼上拥有一群红光满面的伴娘,伴娘租赁业务就越发有前景。
