A newly wedded couple has seized attention on social media after photos of their simple, low-budget wedding ceremony went viral.
The two, who are from a French African country, held their church wedding in a simple setting without the typical pomp and pageantry associated with most weddings.
In the trending photos, the bride and groom abandoned the conventional wedding attire of a gown and suit and instead wore matching T-shirts with their pictures embossed on them.
In the presence of a handful of guests at the venue, they exchanged their wedding vows and sealed their union with a kiss.

Just pay brideprice. Court wedding and probably some fancy reception with friends but as for dressing. I gats look my best for myself. Happy married life to them”
