Couple get married with clothes made of bees

A Chinese couple had a novel wedding when they both turned up with clothes made of thousands of living bees. Passionate beekeepers Li Wenhua and Yan Hongxia tied the knot with their living clothes as family and close friends kept their distance.

The couple, who work for the Nanhu forestry commission in northern China, were ecstatic about their new clothes, with the groom Li saying, “I have been working with bees for two decades and it was the obvious choice for us for our big day.”

He also added that: “I also wanted to set a world record for the biggest coat of bees – I put a queen bee on each of us but the only thing is it was impossible to count how many bees we had – I don’t know if a guess is enough?”

The bride Yan said, “It was an amazing feeling to have a carpet of living bees moving over my body.”

She also added, “I could feel them as they moved around – it was amazing. I have always loved bees but this was a totally new experience.”
