Instead of wedding gifts, the couple - who run an ironing service business, asked that people donate money to Cancer Research.

这对夫妻运营熨烫服务业务，他们不收新婚礼物，而是请人们为癌症研究捐钱。

Mr Gibbs said: 'In the last 15 months we've lost seven of our customers to cancer. It just broke our hearts. We wanted to do something to raise awareness of cancer and to encourage more people to go and get checked out.'

吉布斯先生说：“在过去的15个月中，我们失去了7位身患癌症的朋友。这真的非常令人痛心，我们想做点事来引起人们对癌症的关注，并鼓励更多的人去做身体检查。”

The former bricklayer said the couple used to joke that if they ever got married, they would have a fairytale wedding.

一位以前当瓦工的朋友说，这对夫妻过去经常开玩笑，说如果他们结婚一定会举办一场童话般的婚礼。

'It was a standing joke between us. All our friends started getting married and I said "When we do it we'll have a fairytale wedding. I'll be Shrek and you can be Princess Fiona".

“这是我们之间常开的一个玩笑。我们所有的朋友都先后结婚了，我就开玩笑说‘如果我们结婚，那就来场童话般不一样的婚礼。我扮演史莱克你扮演菲奥娜公主。’”

'Earlier this year we held a fundraiser for Cancer Research and we were talking about what else we could do when Shrek came on the TV. We turned to each other and laughed.'
