This high-flying trapeze wedding is the greatest show on Earth

As if walking down the wedding aisle isn’t nerve wracking enough, these two did it 30 feet in the air on a high wire no wider than a human thumb. Mustafa and Anna have been performing with Ringling Bros. for the past six years. The two exchanged vows on the high wire where they met and fell in love, surrounded below by friends, family, and circus crew in a ceremony officiated by Ringmaster David Shipman who was ordained specifically for this wedding.

Is this high-flying trapeze wedding the greatest show on Earth? Let’s see! Oh, AND there’s a video for your ogling pleasure…

Hang on tight for dinosaur skellies, kitteh shoes, and a first dance under a T-Rex

You must see this Jewish wedding surrounded by dinosaurs at the Houston Museum of Natural Science in Houston, Texas. Samantha and Matt are Californians originally from Houston, and they held their wedding in their home city. Things not to miss: the ceremony overlooking the dino skellies in the Paleontology Hall, the Charlotte Olympia cat shoes (cat ladies unite!), and the first dance underneath a T-Rex. The tablescapes were all different, with moss and grass in terrarium glass bells. You may drool over their macaron-covered cake, too.
