When an earthquake hit Sichuan province on Saturday, news reporter Chen Ying was having her make up applied in preparation for her wedding.

As soon as she found out about the earthquake, she promptly started reporting from the scene - still in her wedding dress - before resuming the ceremony.

The video of her reporting has since gone viral, with many calling her "the world's most beautiful bride". It's certainly a day she won't forget for a long time.
