They say that love conquers all thing and that has been proven by this newly wedded couple and the over 45 guests that attend the wedding ceremony online.

The deadly virus has affected more than 1.6 million people, making it impossible to hold any public gathering such as weddings and other social activities.

With social distancing becoming a norm across the globe, this couple has refused to be deterred by the deadly virus and there was nothing stopping them from getting married.

Their wedding picture surfaced on Twitter, posted by the groom's sibling @KiyaniBba who revealed that the guests participated via the internet.

According to @KiyaniBba, friends and family turned up from France, CIV, Netherlands, SA, Calgary, etc.

Her statement reads:

"Today was my big bro's wedding. Because of the virus, only the bride, groom and their witnesses were allowed in the room. 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, at the end, I unmuted them and all at the same time they applauded and congratulated the newlyweds."
