Couple Get Married In A Flooded Philippines Church (Video)

Resplendent in her white dress, a bride in the Philippines waded through a flooded church to meet her groom, winning the hearts of the world in the process.

Jobel Delos Angeles, 24, did not let monsoon rains get in the way of her marriage to the father of her two children and partner of seven years.

Tropical Storm Yagi and the southwest monsoon brought heavy flooding to the country’s capital Manila and surrounding areas, including Delos Angeles’ province of Bulacan.

“Even if it floods or it rains, nothing can stop me. You only get married once, will you postpone it? I was marrying the man I love,” Mrs Delos Angeles told AFP.

“My gown got wet and heavy but I told myself it was as if I was walking on a red carpet.” Delos Angeles persisted with her special day, taking a boat to the church when a taxi refused to take her, wading through waters up the aisle, and refusing to let the floods reschedule the wedding.
