Covid leads to online marriage
Neither a pandemic nor border closures – and not even an ocean – could stop John Maurice marrying the woman he loves this week.
Surrounded by whānau, he kneeled in front of a camera in his Thorndon flat and exchanged vows with Daisy Cainglet, who was more than 8000km away in a hotel in the Philippines with about 50 family and friends.
The ceremony, officiated in the US state of Utah, marked one year to the day since the couple met online. It was necessitated by Covid-19 and made possible using an online video link between the three countries. Guests in the UK, Dubai and Australia logged on to watch the nuptials
