A happy couple has celebrated their wedding day by having the reception in a McDonald\u2019s restaurant.<\/p>\n
Pastor Speedwell Brasileiro and pedagogy student Ana Luiza Brasileiro became husband and wife in a civil ceremony in\u00a0Goi\u00e2nia, Brazil.<\/p>\n
Then, the church minister and his bride had their first meal as a married couple at the fast food joint because it\u2019s their \u2018special\u2019 place.<\/p>\n
\u2018It was a unique and surreal moment for both of us; we were very happy,\u2019 Ana Luiza, 19, told local media.<\/p>\n
Photos show Speedwell and Ana Luiza ordering on a touchscreen menu and happily tucking into their food with their arms entwined.<\/p>\n
The bride and groom, 27, met in April this year when the Speedwell led a service at Ana Luiza\u2019s church.<\/p>\n

Speedwell, who is also a gospel singer online, added: \u2018Since we met, we\u2019ve always come to the McDonald\u2019s\u2019.<\/p>\n
