Indeed, love is a beautiful thing. When one is in love, the person becomes blind to so many things and nothing else matters but their partners.
This is proven in concrete terms by this couple who got married recently. Photos of the couple have taken over the internet, causing quite a stir and getting tongues wagging.

The identity of the couple is not known as at press time but they widely believed to be Nigerian.
