Las fotografías del suceso te darán vértigo…
La mayoría de las mujeres soñamos con una boda de ensueño desde que apenas somos unas niñas, y es que queremos que ese día tan especial sea inolvidable. Y esto le sucedió a Ryan Jenks y a Kimberly Weglin, una pareja de California que decidió llevarla al extremo y optó por decir “acepto” a 120 metros de altura en medio del Desierto de Moab, en una red de colores.
Así como lo leen, de seguro se preguntarán por qué eligieron dicho lugar… Pues ahí fue donde los novios aventureros se conocieron y se enamoraron perdidamente.
Como era de esperarse, el suceso quedó documentado en increíbles fotos y espectaculares videos. Se los presentamos:

In light of the last video I posted getting so much attention of @sketchyandylewis ‘dropping the rings’, I’m here to set the record straight: IT WAS A PRANK! ???? We knew he was going to pretend to drop our rings because he kept joking about it during rehearsal, but we also knew that he had our real rings attached to a carabiner on a string around his wrist. So we just thought he was going to do a little fake out to mess with the crowd. But of course he had to go above and beyond ????????. He pulled out a quicklink with some washers on it, and dropped that through the net. (Don’t worry! We didn’t litter. All gear was retrieved from the bottom of the cliff by rappelling into the canyon.) Even though I knew our real rings weren’t even made of metal, it still sounded and looked so real that I got worried for a minute. I think everyone on the net and in the crowd briefly thought the worst haha. The rings we exchanged on the net can be seen in the pictures above. (Zoom in to see them better.) I made tiny soft shackles out of 7/64” amsteel for our rings, specifically to exchange on the net so we wouldn’t have to worry about dropping them. Soft shackles are pieces of gear that we use in rigging our highlines, but they are normally a lot bigger. I thought it would be fun to repurpose them and make rings, boutonnières, and bouquets out of them since the button knot kind of simultaneously looks like a diamond and a flower. I also loved that it was a very literal «tying of the knot». ????: @thehearnes Una publicación compartida por Kimberly Weglin (@_kimw_) el
I love the perspective shift in these photos and the sense of scale these give. Rigging this net is always quite the undertaking, and since we did it nearly a week before the actual festival began this year, we had the least amount of people we’ve ever had to help get it rigged(maybe 6 people at each anchor). Pretty incredible that we still managed to pull it off considering this thing weighs probably 500 lbs. Not only that, but we also set it in a new location this year, rigged the new anchor all natural, and created an aisle out to the spacenet, which has never been done before. Thank you @sketchyandylewis @slacklifebc and all the other monkeys and riggers at the festival who lent a helping hand and their creative minds to literally turn my dreams into reality. I’m always blown away by what happens when this community comes together, and this wedding was a HUGE testimony to that. PS- I’ve had a lot of people asking for footage of the BASE jumping flower girls… keep an eye out, I will be releasing a teaser tonight ;) AERIALISTS: @lizasouras on silks, @cdignes on silks, @theletabug on Lyra.

*SWIPE RIGHT TO SEE THE WHOLE VIDEO* Story time! On rehearsal night of our wedding, @hibs69stang was driving me and @_gillogs_ back to town from the Fruitbowl. We were all mentally and physically exhausted from the past two long days of setting up and coordinating, and feeling all of the not so fun part of the wedding stress. We decided to put on some music for that long dirt road and zone out. He has 11,500 songs in his car’s library…..I shit you not, the FIRST song that came on was Hard to Concentrate by @chilipeppers . I looked at him, stoked, like, «Did Ryan tell you!?» And he said, «No, what?» He had no clue that was going to be our first dance song the next day. Out of ELEVEN THOUSAND songs, that one by chance came on first, the night before the wedding. (Funny how the universe seems to send these little signs/pick me ups that you’re on the right path). I never planned much about a wedding growing up, but the one thing I always knew was that if I ever got married someday, THAT would be the song we would dance to (assuming I could find a guy that was okay with something not super traditional, and the right wedding environment to be able to play it in). Every time a relationship didn’t work out, I always drifted back to that song, wondering if I’d ever get to know a love like that. Well, that dream finally came true! Because this song doesn’t have an official music video, and has meant so much to me for so long, I thought I’d pay tribute to the Red Hot Chili Peppers by using their song over some of our wedding shots. And the cherry on top!? I FINALLY get to see them in person for the first time on Thursday in San Francisco. Another dream come true. Hey internet! If you want to help me tag them and get their attention, I’d love to show this to them :D @chilipeppers CREDITS // Dress: @galialahav by @kinsleyjamescouturebridal // Bouquet: @thefauxbouquets // Tuxes: @generationtux // Video footage courtesy of @scottyrog, @wingatemotion , Kfir Smiley Amir, @cincybase , @davidlaffargue , @jimmypeterson27 , @scottyybob // Edit by me :) Una publicación compartida por Kimberly Weglin (@_kimw_) el
