In possibly the most incredible case of ‘Don’t Tell the Bride’, a Kenyan couple celebrated their big day in surely a most unique way – a Manchester United themed wedding.
Only one question can be asked; utmost loyalty or utter lunacy?
As pictures from African Gossip News shows, the groom looks like he was unwisely let loose with his bride appearing to display the opposite of his jubilation – complete lack of amusement.
The wife’s discontent didn’t go unnoticed on the Twitterspere, with a number of tweeters commenting on the rather unusual wedding.

“Wife seems bored already,” Willy Much said.
Ian East didn’t mince his words. He said: “The wife looks happy, probably thinking ‘what a wanker’.”
The groom decked himself out in this season’s home shirt with United flags draped around proceedings, including the wedding car.
Unfortunately, it looks as if Chevrolets aren’t available for wedding hire with the couple being stuck with a lowly Mercedes.
A mere blip in the occasion however, as the club’s new title sponsor adorned the cake, matched with red icing.

Ohn Webb wasn’t impressed with the cake. He said: “Looks like summin u could buy from tescos.”
“Is yaya invited?” Chris Blakey joked
Even though the groom appears to have had control of the nuptials, he did allow his bride to wear the traditional dress, presumably as white is United’s away colour this season, with a red flower in her hair to maintain the theme.

In an attempt to show at least some romance for his beloved, the groom had ‘just married’ printed on the back of his shirt.
Like the Red Devils this season, after a shaky start, eyes will be watching the marriage to see if the man in charge will last until May.
