For something light for our Friday morning- have you ever thought about getting married ON a plane? Simon and Tanya did! A wild, impulsive idea turned into the couple to contact Jetstar and arrange a surprise wedding for their 60 guests- who had no idea of the venue until they showed up! Their guests boarded a plane and said their vows at 30,000 feet! Throwing an aviation twist on the day, they threw a casual reception in Sydney airport,topped their  wedding cake with an aeroplane and guests received luggage locks as bonbonnieres.

You can watch their wedding video here.
