They are surrounded by death and devastation on a daily basis.
But that didn't stop these newlyweds from showing their love for each other in their beloved hometown.

The bride and her soldier groom were pictured posing for a remarkable photoshoot following their wedding in the war-torn Syrian city of Homs.
Behind them, buildings stood abandoned and partially blown apart, while rubble littered the dusty ground.
At other points in the shoot, the bride beamed as she saluted her spouse -- a Syrian Army soldier -- and gazed lovingly at him as he kissed her hands.
The touching pictures were taken by photographer Jafar Meray, who said he wished to capture the 'stainless hopeful' in Syria.

Meray shared the images on his Facebook page, JafaR Photography, writing: 'Honeymooners from Syria.
'They chose rubble and destruction to be the background pictures of their wedding.'
The photographer said the shoot was 'proof that life goes on, silently' and that hope 'is always there'.

The city of Homs has been a major battleground in the uprising against President Bashar al-Assad. But earlier this month, more than 700 rebels and their families began leaving the last insurgent-held area in the city following several years of combat after reaching a ceasefire with the government.
Despite this, at least 32 people were killed and 90 injured in two bomb explosions in Homs on Monday, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

The blasts, one from a car bomb and another from a suicide attack, struck the Zahra district in the middle of the city.
The attack was the second major one in the city since the ceasefire took effect - after twin blasts on December, also in Zahra, killed at least 16 people.

Folake Ajose and Danny Oshungboye met at a mutual friend's birthday party. Not wanting to look 'forward', the groom Danny didn't ask for Folake's number, but waited till the next day to send her a message on Facebook.
How We MetFolake: Danny and I met at a friend's birthday party. I noticed Danny as he walked past me to have his seat, he had a big smile on his face as he said, "hello". After dinner, the party continued at Steam Bar in London where we chatted briefly.
The ProposalDanny proposed on a special night out at The Ritz London. He said he was taking me out to celebrate my birthday and my recent job promotion and that we were going to have steak. He was all suited and booted and his shirt was as white and crisp as snow. He nagged me for not wearing a dress lol… so I thought to myself "007" action. 
After a lovely dinner and a salsa performance, I was presented with a dish by the chef, eager to see what the dessert was I urged the chef to unveil the dish. He paused for a moment, looking towards Danny and there was a beautiful, sparkling diamond ring from De Beers….It sat on a well decorated plate with a bed of roses… Danny was now on his knees, and popped the question. Other diners in the room cheered as I said "YES"!
Advice from the Bride
"Key highlights of the day: The first one was walking down the aisle with my dad, who had an accident a few months before the wedding.
"I also loved our first dance. It was a magical moment, completely un-choreographed. A few surprises were pulled out of the bag by ou r wedding planner – 2706 Events. The indoor sparklers added such elegance, warmth and magic to the moment."
"Lastly, the after party confetti and balloon drop was such an amazing moment. The party was blown up to the max at the point. Ev ery hand was up in the air cheering and taking in the aura of excitement. Thank you 2706 Events!"
