One of the world’s absurdest scenarios played out on Saturday as ten different couples decided to have their weddings in a coffin at Wat Takien temple in Nonthaburi province, on the outskirts of Bangkok.
The couples each lay inside a pink coffin briefly, as their antidote to bad luck. They claimed doing so will also bring happiness into their lives.
Participants made offerings to the monks before taking their places side-by-side in the large pink coffin – floral bouquets held to their chests.
The monks then draped a large white sheet across them – representing their death – and performed chants usually reserved for funerals.
The prayers ended with blessings for a new life.
