Malawi deaf couple weds in style

A hearing impaired couple on Saturday tied knots amid cheers from both families during a colorful wedding ceremony at Lilongwe’s Mtima Moyera Catholic Parish.

Middle aged Misozi Mwambo and his wife Lydia attracted applause from both family and church members as they smooched to signify their unity.

Neither the bride nor the bridegroom could hear what the priest was saying, but that made no difference.

The couple have all MSCE certificates and the husband works at Central Poultry in the capital. They both share a humble background.

But the couple has now overcome the seemingly insurmountable obstacles in their lives to claim their right to happiness.
