WILL you bee mine?

A Chinese couple have tied the knot covered in a layer of BEES.

Li Wenhua and Yan Hongxia, who work for the Nanhu forestry commission in Ning'an city, Northern China, have been keeping the creatures for more than 25 years.

So when Li popped the question they decided the only way to make their big day buzz was to invite their bumblebee buddies.

The pair attracted the swarm to them by using queen bees as bait.

Li said: I have been working with bees for two decades and it was the obvious choice for us for our big day.

His new wife added: It was an amazing feeling to have a carpet of living bees moving over my body. I could feel them as they moved around it was amazing.
