Shanghai started coming alive again on Wednesday, from lovebirds rushing to marriage registration centers to say "I do" to families leisurely taking a stroll at reopened city parks and attractions.

Lovebirds celebrated the lift of lockdown in a romantic and once-in-a-lifetime way – exchanging their vows at reopened marriage registration centers.

A total of 308 couples tied the knot across Shanghai on Wednesday, with three couples divorcing on the day, according to the Shanghai Civil Affairs Bureau.
