An American woman travelled all the way to Haripur, Pakistan to marry a man she met on Facebook.
Mary Kathleen met Adeel Awan when he first sent her a friend request on Facebook after which the two started communicating.
According to reports, Mary, whose Muslim name is now Maryam, travelled all the way to Haripur and converted to Islam before she married Adeel.
The wedding pictures show the bride, dressed in traditional clothes, surrounded by Adeel's family.
This is not the first instance where a foreign woman has married a Pakistani man after meeting through Facebook.
In January, a Canadian woman travelled all the way to Pakistan to tie the knot with a man she met online.
Agnetha had met Qaiser Abbas, who hails from Jalalpur Bhattian on social media website Facebook.
A similar incident occurred on November 20, 2017, when a Chinese woman travelled to Pakistan to be with a man from Layyah she met in 2015.
