While in mid air, two flight attendants told The Pope that the church they wanted to be married in had been destroyed in an earthquake.
Therefore, Pope Francis officiated their wedding in mid air while they were flying.

#PapaFrancesco ha appena SPOSATO IN AEREO questa coppia di assistenti di volo! Una felicità! La coppia parlava col Papa. Hanno detto che non si erano sposati in Chiesa. Il Papa ha chiesto se volevamo sposarsi subito. HANNO DETTO SÌ. Gli atti sono firmati su un normale foglio A4! pic.twitter.com/jVTo7rfwoO
