Delayed by quake, wedding day 5 years later

Yang Zhengjie presents a bouquet of flowers to his bride, Yang Li, on April 15, 2013, in Beichuan county, the epicenter of a devastating earthquake five years ago. The couple had planned to hold their wedding on May 12, 2008, the day when a massive 8.0-magnitude earthquake hit Southwest China's Sichuan province, leaving more than 80,000 people dead or missing. Consequently, their wedding was delayed as their hometown was almost wiped out. Five years later they finally had their long-awaited wedding day in their rebuilt house.
