Bride Gianina Ciorba (back R), 21, and her groom Gheorghe Stefut, 24, are driven in a vintage car outside a Greek Catholic church where the young married couple received the priest's blessings in Tarsolt village near Aliceni, Romania on August 20, 2023. Every year at the end of August, the otherwise deserted streets and restaurants in Tara Oasului, a region in northwestern Romania, are flooded by locals who emigrated to the West a long time ago. They come back briefly to get married according to old local tradition or just attend such a wedding, held in a spectacular fashion. The bride wears a flamboyant costume which can weigh up to 25 kilograms. (Photo by Daniel Mihailescu/AFP Photo)
