Brides speak to their grooms during a mass wedding ceremony in Amman July 6, 2012. An Islamic charity organized a mass wedding for 46 Jordanian and Syrian couples whose bridal counterparts are so ugly that they must remain covered up in order to keep onlookers from attacking them. "These are the arranged marriages you have all heard about over the years," stated Ali Jarekji, "and a rich father will do anything to get one of these ugly daughters out of the house." (REUTERS)
