you may say that their love was indescribable or beyond description
- Indescribable means impossible to describe, because too intense, extreme, etc, for words.
you may also speak of an overwhelming love.
- Overwhelming means very great in number, effect, or force, i.e. extreme. it is used to describe something that is so confusing, difficult, etc., that you feel unable to deal with it.
