A groom in Russia’s Altay region decided to surprises his bride – but this turned out to be a shock for the whole town of Rubtsovsk as the couple traveled to the wedding by armoured personnel carrier.

The wedding procession went along one of the town’s main streets. A huge vehicle, decorated with brightly-coloured ribbons and bows, couldn’t help but catch the eyes of passers-by.

While Dmitry and Yulia were registering the marriage, people outside took photos of the APC, tried to peep into the cab and bombarded the driver with questions. Traffic on the street slowed down while their passengers took photos. Locals now wonder whether the next wedding’s ‘surprise’ will involve something grander: like a self-propelled rocket launcher.
