Incredible Weddings: Bridge-Jump Wedding



At the River Gorge Bridge in West Virginia, soon-to-be-married couple Tom King and his bride, Vivian Taylor, have decided to make their wedding ceremony just a bit more memorable than most.

Instead of opting for a quickie Vegas ceremony, they’re literally taking the plunge by jumping off the 876-ft. edge of the bridge right after saying their “I do’s.”

The fun couple from Memphis, Tennessee, donned the usual white gown and tux for the event, but also added a little something extra in the form of a helmet with a camera inside to capture their great big jump into wedded life.

“It’s a dream come true,” beamed Taylor, 34. The laughing couple was surrounded by 100,000 of their closest friends, family members and curious on-lookers as they fitted themselves into harnesses and tested the parachutes.

After the wedding ceremony, 400 other parachuting daredevils took the plunge off the bridge in celebration of the day’s main event.
