Bride, Brelyn Freeman and hubby, Tim Bowman, Jr.
The bride, Brelyn Freeman, presented her father with a gynaecologist signed 'certificate of purity' on her wedding day to prove she was a virgin.
She gave the framed document to her proud dad, who is a pastor, after walking down the aisle to marry gospel singer Tim Bowman, Jr.
The certificate, given out at the wedding reception in front of guests, stated her ‘hymen is intact’ as well as citing a passage from the Bible.
Detailing her decision the new Mrs Bowman wrote on Instagram: “If one person has made a decision to wait until marriage or decide to stop & wait we have done our job.
“I was able to present a certificate of purity to [my father] signed by my doctor that my hymen was still intact.
“Also the covenant he gave me when I was 13.
"When you honour God, your life will automatically honour others.
“I love you daddy."
