Sharing is caring, or is it?
One woman in Indonesia gave her blessing for her soon-to-be wedded husband to marry another woman, after the latter turned up unannounced at their wedding ceremony on July 20.
Believing what happened to be "destiny", the wife, 20-year-old Nur Khusnul Kotimah said the events unfolded after Yuanita Ruri, 21, went to look for her fiance, Korik Akbar, asking for him to marry her as well.
Yuanita is the ex-girlfriend of Korik, 20, and they had known each other since 2016, Harian Metro reported.
She had found out about the upcoming wedding through social media, as friends began to mistakenly congratulate her instead.
"Because of that, she asked to be his wife as well," said Khusnul, who added that she relented after Yuanita turned up uninvited at the couple's merariq ceremony.
Merariq is a traditional "bride-napping" custom for the people of Lombok where the woman is spirited away by her husband before the wedding.
The kidnapping is part of an elaborate courtship ritual requiring consent from both sets of parents, but the tradition is often abused to justify early marriages, Reuters reported.
Khusnul described how a few minutes after arriving at Korik's house, Yuanita showed up and asked to be married as well.
When questioned by the media, Korik expressed surprise at the turn of events and said he decided to marry the two of them after discussing the situation with his family.
"The dowry for both is also the same, which is 1.75 million rupiah (about $164)," he said.
However, he shared that the decision to marry both women comes with a fair bit of worry as he's currently unemployed and he now has two wives to support.

Soon to be on redtube...not that I know anything about such stuff.
The hot one on the right has a mask tan.
The woman on his left doesn't look too happy either.
I wonder if the brides father is happy? He walked right over to the second bride’s father and handed him half the bill?
“If anyone objects to the marriage, or possibly wants to get in on it, speak now or forever hold your peace.”
How did both if these women happen to have matching dresses? What are the chances they were in on it? They also coincidentally have the same dowry.

The Dowery is the same for both women
Note that these are all Indonesian muslims.
Islam in Indonesia, until recently was very syncretic. 9noy under Saudi influence and money is it getting more Wahhabis
Hunter Biden in disguise?
The island’s indigenous Sasak people are predominantly Muslim however before the arrival of Islam Lombok experienced a long period of Hindu and Buddhist influence that reached the island through Java. A minority Balinese Hindu culture remains in Lombok
Though in Indonesia the dowry is the money the groom pays the brides parents I believe
Nah- he specifically told his cousin “NO YELLOW”.

That was good. :)
They look interchangeable.
The look on his face is priceless....that certain “sinking feeling”...and man...when the two brides “synchronize” their hormone schedules, double trouble!
And two Mother in Laws.
[Poor groom doesn’t look too happy. Wonder what he’s thinking right now.
