Kuala Lumpur - It was twice as much fun at a Malaysian wedding at which two pairs of identical twins tied the knot. Make that knots.
But guests could be pardoned for thinking they were seeing multiple doubles: the bestmen also were twins, as were the bridesmaids and the flower girls, The Star newspaper reported on Monday.
Identical twin sisters Zeenat Begam Sawai Hamid and Zannat Begam Sawai Hamid, 23, had been promised by their parents soon after birth to identical twin brothers Hasan Mohammed Yusof and Husen Mohammed Yusof, 26.
The two sets of parents were good friends.
But the families lost touch with each other until seven years ago, and agreed to fulfill their pledge. Their children took their vows on Sunday in Balakong, a town outside Kuala Lumpur.

The two sisters, born 48 seconds apart, are medical students. The older groom is a clerk in Malaysia's central bank, Bank Negara, and the younger, born four minutes later, is a businessman.
The couples wore identical clothes, but one pair was decked in yellow while the other was dressed in purple. The twin bestmen, Mohammed Aswad and Mohammed Hafiz Yaakob, 20, also wore identical clothes, and could be told apart only because one of them has a thin beard.
The 20-year-old bridesmaids wore different-coloured dresses but the 11-year-old flower girls were dressed alike. - Sapa-AP
