Today's X-treme Wedding Venue: underwater

Have a scuba wedding.


Though you may not want to be featured on "The Gordon Elliot Show" like this pool-confined couple, a scuba wedding can be romantic and exhillarating. Go to Hawaii with Beach Weddings Hawaii and your scuba ceremony can be accompanied by the blowing of the conch shell, traditional Hawaiian music, and an exchange of leis. Following the blessing of rings, put on your scuba gear and submerge yourselves in 30 feet of water, with the Rev. Dard Aller presiding.

"Whales, dolphins and turtles as well as colorful reef fish, are often the witnesses as you write out on your pad "I do" and exchange the rings," their website says.

...Just look out for stingrays, lest your wedding day turn into a Steve Irwin reenactment.

Package Price: $795: Includes marriage license assistance, ceremony that starts on land and concludes underwater, 2 Plumeria leis for the Exchange Ceremony, and a full-color keepsake certificate.
