There is something romantic about floating in the sky as a new day breaks, so if gravity can’t hold your love back, why not get married in the sky? Yes, find a marriage celebrant who is happy to fly and you can get married in a hot air balloon.

 Whether you want your wedding day to be traditional, casual or something different – the balloon will be totally yours. Pick the day, the number, the place, the celebrant, photographer, and, if you wish, the reception  venue too. It’s certainly a unique way to create unforgettable memories and celebrate your wedding or renew your vows.

If you’d like a small wedding, the witnesses can be the photographer and the pilot. Or if you want a larger floating wedding we can take the bigger balloon out to carry 10 people, or organise a second balloon to fly your guests together.

Sunrise is said to be the best time to photograph people, so as dawn slowly breaks your photographer will capture your special moment with perfect light and a stunning backdrop as we float above the valleys, peaks and patchwork farmland of the Ipswich, Scenic Rim and Somerset regions. And because we float with the breeze, there’s no wind factor to ruin your hair!

Since every wedding is unique, please call us or email to discuss your dream wedding in the sky.

How your wedding ceremony or vow renewal may unfold:

-       We usually meet in Ipswich 45 minutes before sunrise at our nominated meeting point in Ipswich, but otherwise we can also meet your wedding party at another pre-arranged meeting or launch point (your own property perhaps?).

-       The ceremony can happen whilst in flight, exchanging vows with 360-degree views of Ipswich, Scenic Rim and Somerset regions gently unfolding before your eyes.

-        Once we have landed, it’s time for your breakfast reception. We can organise this at our regular restaurant venue in Ipswich where guests can join for an additional cost, or you can arrange your own reception venue.

-       We fly almost every day, subject to the weather being suitable. Ballooning is a weather dependent activity and if it is raining or too windy we are unable to fly. You need to take this into account when planning a balloon wedding ceremony. If the weather is not safe for flight, you can decide if you want to reschedule the flight and wedding for another date, or if you prefer to keep the date for your wedding, the wedding may be performed on the ground without the balloon.
