Doctors have wedding ceremony at hospital amid coronavirus pandemic

Two doctors were supposed to have their wedding during the coronavirus pandemic but had to their original plans and have their wedding at the hospital instead. Dr. Shelun Tsai, an OBGYN resident at Duke University Hospital and Dr. Michael Sun, a resident in Duke Psychiatry’s program, were planning to get married April 11 in North Carolina.

To help out their colleagues at the Duke University Hospital stepped up and made sure they still had their wedding day.

"They knew I’d postponed my wedding but people didn’t realize it was that day until I was there [at work] and I said it was supposed to be April 11," Tsai told "Good Morning America." "It started out small, that they wanted to make me a wedding dress, then it was a veil, then flowers and then it became everyone chipping in and jumping onboard.”

Before Tsai walked down the “aisle” her colleagues set up a special room for her to change into her paper wedding gown and even arranged a first look moment between her and her fiance.

The ceremony was live on Zoom and most of Tai’s and Sun’s friends, family and actual wedding party attending via video chat.
