Love is on mountains! California couple ties knot on Mount Everest

CALIFORNIA (Web Desk) - Taking love into mountains, a couple from California got married at Mount Everest Base Camp.

James Sissom, 35, and Ashley Schmieder, 32 spend three weeks trekking through the snow to exchange vows and rings 17,000ft above sea level.

‘After much deliberation, we decided a traditional wedding was not the right fit for us. As much as we would have loved to share our special day with our family and friends, we were both drawn to the idea of eloping during an incredible vacation,’ said Ashley as quoted by Daily Mail.

‘We both are avid lovers of the outdoors and had experience at altitude up to 14,000 feet, but we knew the three week Everest Base Camp trek would be far more physically and mentally demanding than anything we’ve experienced.’

Wearing hiking boots, the bride was smartly dressed in an embellished gown while the groom looked dapper in a black suit.

Specialist adventure wedding photographer Charleton Churchill filmed the implausible journey of the couple and took numeorus breathtaking photos.

‘I wanted to document a real couple getting married, the journey along the way, the pain, the happiness, the tiredness, the struggles, as well as the romantic chemistry of the couple,’ he said.

‘More than that, I wanted to portray the contrast that exists between the intimidatingly majestic mountains and the small, fragile love between two humans.’

Well! This will surely give you serious wedding goals.
