Amsterdam - Resplendent in bright pink, violet and orange costumes, Alexander Leslie and Guno Berkleef dance with their guests to the beat of a band on their way to their wedding... on the Amsterdam ring road.

Like 18 other couples, the two men tied the knot on the A10, the motorway that runs around the Dutch capital, closed to cars for a day as part of celebrations marking 750 years since Amsterdam was founded.

"It really felt like the universe chose us," said Leslie, 32.

The couple were among the lucky few to be selected from 400 who applied to hold their wedding ceremony op de ring (on the ring).
