A couple from the United States have caused a stir on social media after they decided to set themselves on fire soon after exchanging vows.
The newlyweds identified Ambyr Bam and Gabe Jessop, decided to make a fiery exit instead of the normal send off where couples are showered with petals of flowers, accompanied by song and dance.
In a video that was shared on their social media pages, the fire is set on the backs of the bride and the groom. They ran for a few meters before they bent down near a water tab where the fire was put out.
“I promise we will post photos from the actual wedding part when we get a min/service while on our honeymoon- but here is a video of the send off if you haven’t already seen it ? . Love you all . Thanks for your Support and kindness,” the couple said on their Instagram page.
