freefloating wedding
Solid grounded weddings are hard enough to plan. Never-the-less, some New York City couple went through skyrocketing stress levels to out-do every other couple in the world and tie the knot while floating. I hope she didn’t spend too much money on the hair–I hear weightlessness does more damage than humidity.
To recreate the weightless experience without going into space, the plane executed parabolic flight maneuvers, climbing sharply and descending several times during the one-hour flight.
Inside the 90-foot-long (27-meter) padded “floating zone,” the ceremony was accomplished with a lot of bumping and fumbling, as bride and groom, guests and witnesses alike tried to coordinate their movements in a microgravity environment.
Good thing they only flew for an hour–the poor wedding party looks completely horrified. Not to mention muscular atrophy in the wrong places could be a bitch!
