Jetpack Wedding Zooms into Newport

An adventurous couple ties the knot in unusual style in Newport Beach. It's billed as the world's first such wedding.

The bride wore white and a jetpack. The groom wore a wetsuit and bow tie. Together, they soared over the waters of Newport Harbor and touched down to a wedding on the beach. 

Grant Engler and Amanda Volf exchanged vows Thursday while wearing jetpacks on the sand in Newport Beach. Family, friends and a horde of media witnessed the ceremony, which was touted as the world's first jetpack wedding.

The couple then zoomed into their future together, flying over the bay as a jet ski carried a "Just Married" sign under them.
