Thai man marries 3 brides in ceremony
A few months ago, the viral story of a Thai man who has 8 wives threw into question the factors that made them decide to tie the knot.
While they affirmed that they’re willing to live together as married couple(s), some people still require more evidence to understand the rationale behind having multiple partners.
In a ceremony over at Nonthaburi, this Thai man who marries 3 brides could help to show how society may just be warming up to the notion of polygamy.

Prior to their marriage, each bride carried her own tray of wedding gifts worth ฿100,000 (USD2,986) to the groom’s clinic where the wedding ceremony took place.

According to Sanook, the groom is a Thai traditional medical doctor who reportedly has children with each of his wives and financially supports all of them.
A hearty congratulations on their wedding
We think that these individuals’ decisions to have multiple partners comes purely from their willingness to spend the rest of their lives together.
We’d also like to congratulate the newlyweds on their marriage and wish them healthy and long lasting relationships.
