The brides were dressed in wedding gowns rented in Kashgar, in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, over 300 kilometers from the border.

Three newly weds took a solemn oath against chilliness and promised their faith in love before the No.7 boundary marker, to the applause and blessings of their fellow soldiers.
