Couple getting married in airplane aisle block bathroom access

Love is in the air.

We’ve heard of destination weddings, but some people like getting married during the journey. A couple named Tina and Roger took their love to new heights after tying the knot aboard a Southwest flight, as seen in a viral TikTok video with over 5.2 million views.

In the moving clip, uploaded by @katrinabadowksi, a flight attendant is heard announcing the mile-high marriage over the intercom.

“As you all know Southwest is the love airline and today love is in the air,” she gushes. “We have a couple, Tina and Roger, who are about to quite literally walk down the aisle on this flight and all of you are invited to the wedding.”

The air hostess-cum-master of ceremonies instructs passengers to “please remain seated as a courtesy to the bride and groom, and if you do have to use the lavatory, please use the one in the back of the aircraft.”

The clip then cuts to Tina walking down the aisle holding orange flowers as music soars, evoking the end of a rom-com.

Upon reaching the front of the plane where her future hubby, clad in an orange shirt and tie, is waiting, the couple join hands and an officiant makes it official.

“Tina and Roger, today is a day unlike any other,” she declares. “Not only are you embarking on an adventure of marriage, but you’re doing it amidst the clouds, surrounded by 136 passengers turned to newfound friends.”

The woman continues, “They say love knows no boundaries and indeed, thanks to Southwest, it now knows no altitude.”

That’s when she poses the big question, inquiring, “Roger, do you take Tina to be your lawfully wedded wife? And Tina, do you take Roger to do be your lawfully wedded husband?”

The pair both agree, whereupon the officiant pronounces the happy couple “man and wife” and tells Roger, “You may now kiss your bride.”

The newlyweds share a kiss and the plane erupts in applause and cheers. The bride and groom begin high-fiving people as they stroll down the aisle as man and wife.

At one point, the bride even tosses her bouquet and a female passenger grabs it from the floor, after which a guest book is passed around the aircraft.

When the passengers deplane, they walk through a jetway adorned with pink streamers and hearts to commemorate the nuptials.

The festivities conclude with the couple riding through the terminal in an airport cart fittingly affixed with a “Just Married” sign.

Meanwhile, viewers on TikTok mocked the midair marriage.

“‘Thank you all for being here,’ as if they had another choice,” griped one.

“I’ve never seen a wedding hostage situation,” said another.

While getting hitched up high is technically legal, it isn’t as straightforward as it might seem — you can’t just say “I do” aboard an aircraft and call it a day.

Casey Greenfield, a New York lawyer specializing in matrimonial law, told Conde Naste Traveler that you there are a lot of of “myths around getting married in the air,” notably the misconception that pilots are granted the authority to perform the service.

For those planning to have their big day at 30,000 feet, it’s best to do so in domestic US airspace. International flights can pose complications, such as potentially needing to be a resident of the nation that owns the airspace, Simple Flying notes.

As marriage is regulated on a state-by-state basis US, anyone who has the power to make it official — whether a justice of the peace, minister, or pal with a one-day license — can do so in the sky, depending on state law.

That being said, should the couple want to get a divorce, legal issues could arise if they didn’t know which state they were over at the time they joined the mile-high marriage club.

This is why legal experts advise people to carry out the official part on the ground, and then have a strictly ceremonial ceremony in the sky.

The legal hurdles haven’t dissuaded people from walking down the airplane aisle.

Last winter, a globetrotting couple exchanged vows mid-flight aboard a budget airline flight from Iceland to France.
