Brothers Taiwo and Kehinde Oguntoye speak to the BBC after getting hitched to twin sisters.
The story
When guests gathered at a church in the south-west Nigerian city of Ibadan at the weekend, they knew they were witnessing something rare.
A pair of twin brothers - Taiwo and Kehinde Oguntoye - were marrying twin sisters Taiwo and Kehinde Adediran in a joyous joint ceremony.
Details
The Yoruba people, who predominate in south-west Nigeria, are known for having an unusually high number of twin births, but it is not every day two sets of twins tie the knot.
"We know many twins, but this marriage feels like it was arranged by God. We have always dreamed of marrying twins," Taiwo Oguntoye told BBC Yoruba on his wedding day.
"With God's grace, we pray for twins in our first and second children. That is our heart's desire."
Twins are considered a blessing in Yoruba culture and their names are predestined. The older child is called Taiwo, meaning "the one that tests the world", while the younger is called Kehinde, meaning "the one that came after".
The brothers are fraternal twins, while the sisters are identical twins
The Oguntoye-Adediran love story began a decade ago, when all four were studying at the University of Ibadan.
