Triplets Rafaela, Rochele and Tagiane Bini share the same birthday, the same looks and tastes, and now - after marrying men who look strikingly similar - the same wedding anniversary too.
The 29-year-old sisters, from Passo Fundo, southern Brazil, even wore the same wedding dress, as well as hair style and make up, for their big day on Saturday.
A different colour of bouquet was the only clue to help bewildered friends and family distinguish one bride from the other.
Rafael, who married Rafaela, told how the girls sometimes deliberately confused their fiances.
He remembered: 'There was a time when we were all in the kitchen making dinner. So Rochele, who is Gabriel's, was doing stuff at the sink, and Rafaela was at the stove.
'We were there chatting and they changed places. I went behind to hug her, and said "oops" when I realised I'd got the wrong girl.'
On the day, though, the men insisted they didn't have a problem recognising the loves of their lives.
'Oh yes, I knew which one was mine, for sure. I knew as soon as she entered the church, she was the most beautiful,' said Eduardo, who married Tagiane.
The sisters told how, like other identical siblings, they have always been close and shared the same tastes and interests since they were babies.
Their parents, Pedro and Salete, already had one daughter, Liziele, when they decided to increase the family - but never imagined three more girls would come at once.
Mother Salete fainted when she was told she was expecting triplets, according to the girls.
It was parents Pedro and Salete who suggested the girls all get married together after Tagiane also got engaged to Eduardo.
The only dilemma for Pedro, a farmer, was how he would walk all three daughters down the aisle at once.
He said: 'We decided that we would all walk down the aisle until half way down the church. From there, I would take one at a time.'
