Each morning at 7 a.m., a daughter drives Duong Van Phuc (79) and Ho Thi Nguyen (86) to the familiar sidewalk corner of Le Loi Street, Can Tho City. There, a small bread cart is chained to an electric pole - their humble place of business.

The sincerity and warmth of a neighborhood boy won over a young Hanoi woman. After a year of dating, the couple - whose houses stand just 10 meters apart - decided to marry, creating a wedding full of charm and laughter.

Their cross-border wedding became an online sensation, but their journey to love was anything but easy.

A groom nearly 1.9 meters tall carrying a wooden stool behind his petite bride as they made their way around each banquet table - thanking guests at their wedding - has captured the hearts of millions online.
