This is sure to be a first. According to CNET, Wiriadi Sutrisno works as a physiotherapist in California, and Rita Sri Mutiara Dewi is from the Indonesian city of Bandung.

“We’ve exchanged photos, chat almost daily and often call each other, but we’ve never met,” Dewi was quoted as saying.

Sutrisno proposed over the internet, and they finally exchanged wedding vows in a ceremony using voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology.

The happy couple won’t have to wait much longer to see each other in person–Dewi is scheduled to fly to the United States later this month.
