A newlywed couple arrived at a Melaka polling station in full traditional wedding attire today (14 Nov) to cast their ballots, only to realise at the registration queue that they had left their identity cards at home.

Yau Wei Ming, 31, and his bride, Chan Jia Lin, 27, arrived at the SJKC Machap Baru polling centre at approximately 12 PM during the 16th Melaka state election.

The couple travelled to the school in a hired vintage TD2000 vehicle decorated with pink ribbons, accompanied by a seven-car wedding convoy.

According to local media outlet Melaka Hari Ini, the pair visited a temple earlier that morning for prayers and wedding photos before proceeding directly to the polling station.
