Four people can be seen putting their hands on the roof of a car while the military searches them and demands their documents.
A soldier with a bouquet on his back kneels behind a woman in a purple jacket.
Suddenly, music can be heard as the woman turns around, bursting into tears at the sight of her boyfriend.
After he puts the ring on her finger, the couple embrace as everyone around them cheers.
It comes after another couple tied the knot on the front lines in Kyiv yesterday and Mayor Vitali Klitschko was pictured kissing his bride for good luck.
