LODI, CA (KTXL/CNN) - A husband and wife started their new life together on a high note.
They exchanged their vows standing on a makeshift spider web 400 feet above a canyon.
Getting married can figuratively put a couple on Cloud Nine, but Ryan Jenks and Kimberly Weglin decided to make their wedding literally have that feeling.
"That's our whole life," Weglin said. "We didn't really change anything about our lives to make this wedding happen, which I think is the interesting part that a lot people don't really realize. We live this lifestyle every single day."
They live the slack life, constantly searching for the bliss known as flow state.
"It's when you're not thinking about what you're doing, and it just happens automatically," Jenks said.
They travel around the world and take in the scenery through high-lining and slack-lining, with the GGBY Festival in Utah being a yearly tradition.
"We've always done it together, and this festival is something we've always gone to together, so we thought it'd be a great place to get married," Jenks said.
With the help of their high-flying and acrobatic friends, they were able to make it happen on Nov. 20, just a day before the festival kicked off.
"I've heard a lot of people say because it's every woman's dream to get married on a spider web, and I was like for me it was," Jenks said. "That was super romantic for me because that's what we love."
The couple said everyone was safe as they were more than 400 feet above the canyon - even Weglin's dad, who provided a photo of her wedding that has gone viral.
"He had walked me 'down the aisle,' and he made it out there and he was like 'Yea!'" she said. "And that was the cutest thing. And he actually fell walking me down the aisle, but instead of being embarrassed about it he just laughed it off and was smiling. And everybody just started monkey-calling him, and he was so excited just to be there. He'd never done anything like this."
The couple's goal is to raise exposure for the sport they love: a sport that allows Weglin to take on her fear of heights, a sport that brought the two together and a sport they know they will have with them for the rest of their lives.
"If you live the slack life and all your time, money and energy goes into slack-lining, it's just a different kind of vibe," Jenks said.
