Love is in the air.
A couple this week got married on a Southwest flight after their Las Vegas elopement hit a snag.
A Facebook post from the airline said Pam and Jeremy found their jokes about getting married in Las Vegas to become more serious so the pair booked a flight for Sunday.
The couple, dressed for their wedding, flew from Oklahoma City to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport only to find their connection to Vegas had been canceled.
As they discussed the probability that they would miss their wedding appointment, another traveler overheard them.
The traveler, Chris, an ordained minister, said he could marry Pam and Jeremy in Vegas, and the three rushed to Dallas Love Field Airport get three tickets on the next Southwest flight.
As they boarded the flight, the captain noticed Pam’s wedding dress and asked her about it. She told him the ever-changing plans and joked they should get married on the flight.
“Let’s do it!” the Captain replied, according to Southwest.
The flight crew strung toilet paper streamers and broke out the snack mix. A flight attendant acted as maid of honor and a photographer on the flight took photos. Pam walked down the aisle, as passengers recorded on their phones. A notebook was passed around to serve as the couple’s guestbook.
“Congrats to the newlyweds on a memorable inflight wedding neither our Employees nor Passengers are likely to forget!” Southwest’s statement said.
