“We consulted with the families and they agreed to get married in the quarantine center without any elaborate rituals."

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that many were affected by the ban on social gatherings and the introduction of restriction of movement in Kenya due to the impact caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

Ancent Mutua, a web designer, and Zipporah Wambui Mwangi, an engineering surveyor, made the tough decision to continue with their wedding even after restriction of movement into the Nairobi metropolitan were enforced.

Having already planned everything, they saw no reason to call it off but tried their best to enjoy the moment.

The wedding was held on Friday, April 10, at the Emmanuel Baptist Church as both dressed perfectly as earlier planned for the occasion.
