A Twitter user identified as Ki has recounted how her older brother held an online wedding due to the ongoing global Coronavirus pandemic.
Ki said that only the couple and their two witnesses were allowed at the occasion, which she was part of and she suggested an online stream so that their relatives and friends could witness the occasion.
The Coronavirus pandemic has no doubt changed the world in very huge ways and it might be hard for things to go back to normal.
The pandemic which reportedly started in Wuhan, China, has proven to be very deadly and there is still no vaccine against. In order to curb the spread, states have been locked down by the government as people are advised to stay at home and practise social distancing.
This has definitely affected a lot of people’s plans especially young couples who had already fixed their wedding dates. Despite that, some people have decided to make use of technology to make things easier.
“Today was my big bro’s wedding,” Ki writes on her Twitter handle. “Because of the virus, only the bride, groom and their witnesses were allowed in the room, she continues.
“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 WeddingFace with tears of joy.
“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 and at the end, I unmuted them and all at the same time they applauded and congratulated the newlyweds.
