A Common-Law Marriage in the Sea

I was privileged to watch two people, standing in the surf, oblivious of everything around them, swap rings and make vows. 
They were so in love and I could see they wanted this moment to last forever.
They took photographs of the rings, of their hands intertwined and selfies, holding each other tight.
Then they held each other close and looked out to sea.
It was so romantic and they were so loved-up; reluctantly they turned from the sea and the moment they had just shared.
As they collected their shoes I silently offered them my congratulations and wished them all the happiness.
