Last month saw the first ever "wing-walker" wedding take place in the UK. The daredevil bride and groom said their vows while harnessed to two small airplanes x feet in the air. After several months of trying to find a vicar to perform the celestial ceremony, the fearless Reverend Bringham finally agreed to be strapped backwards on the lead airplane, and sanctify the marriage between Katie and Darren McWalters. The vows were said over an intercom system and broadcast to the guests on the ground below.

Less is more
| Labels: destination weddings, outdoor wedding, tropical wedding, wedding decorations, wedding flowers, weddings in spainSometimes in it the simplest of touches that is the most effective.
Simplicity goes hand in hand with an elegant wedding, and this is especially true for an outdoor destination wedding. The bright sunlight, blue sky and lush green foliage of many destinations in Spain create a fresh pallette for a crisp, bright wedding. Using colourful flowers to decorate your tables doesn't necessarily mean elaborate centrepieces or large arrangements. A stunning effect can be created by using petals or small sprays of local flowers such as bouganvilla. Combine inexpensive glass containers with flowers and candles for an affordable and stylish effect that will look equally impressive in the night and day. Or choose small vases, candle holders or ornaments that can double as table decorations and wedding favours for your guests to take home when they leave.
