(ECNS) -- Young couple Ji Yuting and He Tao quit their jobs last September to take a 365-day wedding trip dressed in the costumes of China's 56 ethnic groups, Dahe Daily reports.

Their marriage marathon started from Southwest China's Chongqing Municipality and now includes wedding photos taken in 19 traditional costumes of local cultures along the way, including those from Mongol, Hezhen, Baoan, Evenki and Oroqen nationalities.

After first meeting on a holiday trip, their dream became an epic marriage ceremony on the road. "We got to know each other for the first time on a trip to Tibet," said the bride. "When we decided to get married, we wanted to step once more into a journey, this time to commemorate the nice people and events in the process of acquaintance, then love."

"We want to spend a whole year celebrating our wedding and meanwhile learn more about traditional cultures," Ji added.

They have established a public WeChat account to share their experiences while popularizing ethnic cultures and China's inherited civilization.
