Meet Brett and Amelia Irwin. The couple got married last year and they currently live in Johannesburg, South Africa but their wedding was different from the usual.

Amelia and Brett had planned to get married in their hometown in Johannesburg, South Africa. But then Brett’s brother announced that he planned to get married in the same month.

Therefore, instead of spending money on one big ceremony, they had eight different weddings, in eight different countries.

They started their journey from Amelia’s home in the UK to South Africa, where they ended their trip with Brett’s brother’s wedding.

They got married in India, Russia, China, Nepal, Mauritius, Paris, England and South Africa.

The only person who attended all their weddings was their 5-year-old son.

Amelia’s parents were present for the England and France weddings, while Brett’s came for China, Mauritius, and South Africa.

Amelia says they ended up spending around £10,000 less ‘than an average wedding’.
