A daredevil couple have said their "hell yeahs" in what may be one of the most daring weddings ever.
Kim Weglin and Ryan Jenks tied the knot on a net platform suspended above a 400ft deep canyon.
The thrilling ceremony was complete with a netted aisle, paragliding guests and even base-jumping flower girls.
The newlyweds decided to throw an extreme wedding because they both love highlining - where adrenaline junkies walk across a tightrope - and met at a festival dedicated to the sport.
The American couple's amazing wedding snaps in Moab, Utah's BLM Desert were taken by specialised adventure photographers Abbi and Callen Hearnes.
The photographers said in a statement: "It's pretty obvious the wedding was epic, amazing, and crazy, but I hope that you take your time looking through these photos to see beyond the shock-factor because this wedding is a very accurate representation of nearly every reason we've fallen so deeply in love with Moab.
"The way everyone came together, put forth their talents, pitched in, and did everything in their power to pull this off honestly amazes me.
"Kim and Ryan fell in love in Moab at this high-lining festival, GGBY, a few years ago and got engaged on the net at the festival last year so it only felt right to get married on the net the day before the official festival started.
"Friends flew over in paragliders while some played instruments on the cliffs.
"As they ended their ceremony, exchanging 'hell yeahs" instead of 'I dos', ten base-jumper 'flower girls' lined along the cliff edges in tutus and jumped off one-by-one, releasing 5,000 flower petals that had been packed in their parachutes."
The photographers added: "Kim wore the most gorgeous Galia Lahav dress and a custom matching veil, which made her look like a total goddess in the typically rugged desert environment.
"Kim and Ryan will forever be able to look back on this day knowing it was 100 per cent them.
"Their family and friends that were present got to learn more about them, which is something I would hope for any couple that chooses to have guests at their wedding."
