Wedding Ideas - Aerial

Featured Photographer: Fandl Photography We often think about the world through shapes. We have circles of friends, square meals, love triangles.

If you are an audacious couple looking to marry in a nontraditional way, an adventure wedding in the skies over Lake Tahoe could be the thrill you’re looking for. Joining in holy matrimony while floating graciously in a balloon at unthinkable heights or soaring daringly in a helicopter at electrifying speeds will certainly be an unprecedented wedding experience not easily forgotten.

Your first dance will be one with nature, flowing only where the wind sanctions as you view the mountainous peaks of the Sierra Nevada Range, pristine lakes, the adjacent Carson Valley and beyond. An alternate method available for having a wedding in the sky is in a private chartered helicopter. The rituals of the ceremony will take place while in flight above the Sierras and Lake Tahoe, exchanging rings and utterances of love while zipping through the air. Once enunciated as husband and wife, it’s time to rejoice with a toast while enjoying the aerial view of the amazing scenery below. You’ll see the falls of Emerald Bay, scores of colossal summits, and a 72 mile circumferential shoreline of sheer beauty. The magnificence of the sights will vastly add to the excitement of your adventurous day. The pronouncement of your unification nearly two miles high while floaring serenely in a basket or whizzing with ferocity in a helicopter is by no means your ordinary, everyday wedding.

An in-fight wedding is an adventure of extraordinaire, and for those aspiring such an escapade, Tahoe makes it all possible. To say the least, uniting in marriage amongst the clouds is irrefutably an outlandish way to marry, but it is nevertheless a fascination for a number of couples who wish to begin their lives together in an unequaled way.
