Couple Scale 2,300-Foot Peak to Say ‘I Do’

Couple Scale 2,300-Foot Peak to Say ‘I Do’

Some would say that a wedding day is the peak of happiness in a relationship, but very few can use that word literally. Jamie and David Lamb are two people who can, having climbed 2,300 feet up a rock face to say, "I do." The two climbed the Stawamus Chief, a summit in British Columbia near the city of Squamish. The couple had seen a video their friends had made of a mock mountain-climbing wedding and decided to do the real thing. 

The bride, Jamie, said of the day that she had never wanted a traditional wedding, adding, "What we really wanted was to enjoy a day without all of the other drama that comes with weddings." 

They may have missed out on the kind of drama that didn't involve hanging thousands of feet in the air by ropes, but the day still cost a pretty penny (as most weddings do). The roughly $11,000 price tag included a wedding dress made for climbing. After an exciting climb to the top, the two exchanged vows and popped the cork on a bottle of champagne. Photos and video of the event are romantic, if not vertigo-inducing. 

Let's hope the newlyweds keep taking their love to new heights.
