Many other penguins were in attendance on Friday (12 Jul).The guests were served a sumptuous seafood banquet.
Visitors could enjoy the celebration through the glass at the aquarium in Dalian, Liaoning Province.
Letter bunting spelling “Happy Wedding” hung from the penguin couple’s enclosure.
Ms Zhang of Saintya Ocean World told local media that the newlyweds are, in fact, an actual couple.Penguins, like humans, have lifelong mates.
However, also like humans, that doesn’t mean they don’t cheat.
Aquarium staff will closely monitor the newly-hitched couple, as reported on What’s The Jam.
Ms Zhang said: “From December this year to January next year, we expect a large number of penguin chicks to be born.
“About three months later, the chicks will grow to the size of their parents and reach sexual maturity.
“Then, during the summer holiday from July to September, they will enter the breeding season.”
It’s not the first time Saintya Ocean World has organised penguin nuptials.
Another black-and-white partnership tied the knot there on 4 July.
