A British couple who wanted a wedding with a difference achieved their dream on Tuesday, exchanging their wedding vows in the air hundreds of feet above the British county of Gloucestershire(格洛斯特郡(英国英格兰郡名)).

The couple had a wing walking wedding presided by a vicar, who was reportedly an aviation enthusiast.

The three were strapped onto the wings of biplanes travelling at up to 161 kilometers per hour.

Wedding vows were shouted through special microphones, which were audible through a sound system to the wedding guests on the ground.

The 23-year-old bride Katie McWalters said she felt quite excited over the experience.

"It's a sensory overload. You're up there, you're going so fast your adrenalin's pumping, you've got all the gorgeous scenery, plus we had to remember to say 'I will'! It's brilliant, just like being on a rollercoaster, but without a track, and you feel somewhat safer."

Darren McWalters, her 24-year-old husband, said that they just wanted something special.

"We are a bit crazy together, so we wanted something that suited."

The adventure-loving couple had got engaged while travelling in the Brazilian rainforest, and then decided to have an unusual wedding ceremony.
