A Houston couple took a 15-mile bike ride down a path to their future.

The couple are huge Texans fans. They planned their wedding so that they would be able to watch the Texans play the Jacksonville Jaguars in London.

The two got married on Oct. 27, and they left for London just days later.

Nguyen told ABC13 that the British consulate heard about their story and offered them seats at the game. The couple kindly declined and got their own tickets, because they were going with their friends and wanted to sit with them at Wembley Stadium.

Looks like it turned out to be a great honeymoon! The Texans beat the Jags 26-3.
