Priests married two frogs in Guwahati, northern India, in a ritual to please rain gods.
More than 2,000 wedding guests attended the ceremony as frog bride Bijuli, which means 'Thunder', and groom Barun, 'Wind', tied the knot.
The amphibians were then fed a special celebratory lunch of flies and mosquitoes.
The "wedding" was held because the region is suffering problems with chronic drought.
A spokesman for local authorities said: "The marriage went off very well.
"We hope that now the rains will finally come. The region is absolutely parched and we need rain. We didn't know what else to do."
