The coronavirus pandemic has forced many plans and events to be either postponed or canceled as the world battles to curb the deadly disease.
However, a relentless couple went ahead with their wedding as they smartly used technology to their advantage and decided to have an online wedding to give their family members the opportunity to ”attend” the wedding.
Twitter user @KiyaniBba, who is the younger sister of the groom, shared the story online.
She wrote;
‘Today was my big bro’s wedding. Because of the virus, only the bride, groom and their witnesses were allowed in the room. As the official CTO of my family, I suggested that we set up a Zoom so that our relatives and friends could join us. I present you the first Zoom Wedding.
We had more than 45 people from France, CIV, Netherlands, SA, Calgary, etc. I muted everyone during the ceremony and recorded everything using zoom. People cried during the vows, at the end I unmuted them and all at the same time they applauded and congratulated the newlyweds’
