Groom refuses drink on wedding day
The bride also appeared displeased and unhappy, suggesting that there was a hidden reason behind their decision to tie the knot.

Groom dragged inline for ignoring bride and focusing on his phone at wedding
Meanwhile, Fox Nigeria earlier reported that a groom has been dragged on social media for what many tagged as a disrespectful attitude to his bride.
This came as a video from their church wedding showed the groom focusing on his phone all through as he and the bride stepped out of the premises.
The man gave his phone undivided attention and only offered the bride his hand as they made the walk.
