Ever wonder what happened to all those American Jeeps left over from the 60s?

Well, ponder no more, as it turns out some of them are being used for wedding processions around downtown Hanoi. In a video posted by VnExpress earlier this week, one newly wed couple took to the streets with their entire wedding party, parading around what appears to be Hoan Kiem Lake with nearly 20 Jeeps.

The festivities were led by a yellow GAZ-69 Jeep with the rest of the vehicles in army green and heavily decorated with flowers. While military vehicles are a little unorthodox for a wedding celebration, we all have our own ways of expressing love.
