Bride And Groom Spend Their Wedding Day Feeding 4,000 Refugees Instead Of Wedding Guests
A Turkish bride and groom wanted to share their joy on their wedding day. How did they decide to do that? By inviting 4,000 Syrian refugees to eat with them and celebrate in the southern Turkish city of Kilis.
Fethullah and Esra, who got married in a province near the Syrian border, invited refugees who have fled the country since the civil war began years ago. The groom’s father said he was glad that the couple began their life together “with such a selfless action.”
Wedding guests shared food using trucks and those providing meals included the bride and groom themselves.
“I was shocked when Fethullah first told me about the idea but afterwards I was won over by it,” the bride told i100. “It was such a wonderful experience. I’m happy that we had the opportunity to share our wedding meal with the people who are in real need.”
What a wonderful gift these two newly weds were able to give on their happy day. Unlike many brides who want the day to be all about them, this couple did a very selfless act. We wish them many many years of happiness in their marriage!
