Talk about the extreme!

One couple has decided to take their dream wedding to new height by exchanging vows 70 miles about the Earth in the first Galactic sub-orbital flight next year. This pricey £100,000-a-ticket wedding will be officated by Sir Richard Branson. However, this isn’t Branson’s first time, as he officiated another wedding mid-air prior.

In January, Branson unveiled the new SpaceShipTwo model, a project aimed to take customers into suborbit this summer.

This is what a spokesperson for Virgin Galactic had to say, “Customers will have a two-hour flight, go up to 70 miles above the Earth and experience amazing views of the planet, G forces and weightlessness after a three-day training programme.”

Groovy or just plain stupid?
