Mayor of Baguio City Benjamin Magalong officiated a wedding at 2 a.m. on Tuesday. Magalong added that due to a prior commitment, he invited the couple to have the wedding officiated at 2 a.m. in his office, coinciding with the palindrome day 22.02.2022 or “Twosday.”

The local chief executive hailed the incident as a “fortunate one in a million coincidence.” “Regardless of what time the lovely words are said, saying ‘I do’ to begin a lifetime commitment matters most to a couple deeply in love,” Magalong remarked.

“Until death do them part,” he said, “Nirel and Rex will always remember the memorable 2 a.m. on the 2nd month of 2022 as a reminder of two hearts being one till time’s fateful end,” he added.
