A couple in the Philippines went ahead with their wedding Sunday despite the eruption of a volcano spewing ash into the sky behind them.
Chino and Kat Vaflor were tying the knot at a venue 10 miles from the Taal Volcano when wedding photographer Randolf Evan captured dramatic shots of the couple with the ash plume seemingly overhead.
Evan said everyone at the wedding at Savanna Farm Tagaytay by Solange stayed "calm" as the couple said "I do."
The venue later posted a picture of the couple at the altar, swirling clouds in the distance, and wrote, "The wedding continues!"
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology reported that the volcano exhibited a "fast escalation" in volcanic activity. Continuous eruption generated ash plumes 6 to 9 miles above the crater, it said.

Well, at least the groom got a good initiation into what living with a woman will be like.

Will have to wait later for if those at the after wedding party survived the pyroclastic flows.

Did the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around.

God was celebrating a little, and clearing some forest for a family.
Now, if that could have only happened under my house, so the insurance company would recognise I really had an expensive problem.

if you put off your wedding every time a typhoon, flood, volcano or earthquake was nearby, nobody would be married at all in the Philippines.
