Filipino couples keep getting married in flooded churches

Jamaica Aguilar got married in a flooded church in the Philippines, walking through knee-deep water caused by heavy rain from a monsoon and typhoon. She and her groom, Jade Rick Verdillo, chose to continue with the wedding despite the weather, focusing on their love and family. The flooded wedding went viral online. Similar weddings happened in past years, showing both Filipino spirit and ongoing flood problems caused by poor drainage and climate change. After the ceremony, the couple took antibiotics to stay healthy.
