Three of their friends (linked below) preformed aerial stunts below the net on silks, while a few friends did acro-yoga on the cliff edges, a friend painted the event live in the desert, a friend played flute, another blew giant bubbles nearby, some friends walked high-lines and some just hung in the dead airspace to watch the ceremony. One of the things Kim loves about the festival is the amount of things going on in the relatively condensed space, so she wanted to encourage that vibe during their ceremony. After throwing around a lot of ideas, they decided they'd use the original net and add an "aisle" so they could walk out to it. They worked closely with Andy Lewis, the best man and inventor/creative mastermind behind the space net, to plan a real wedding ceremony on the net 400 feet above the canyon. Kim and Ryan fell in love in Moab at this high-lining festival, GGBY, a few years ago and got engaged on the net at the festival last year ( see our photos from GGBY 2016 here), so it only felt right to get married on the net the day before the official festival started. They make an amazing team, which was definitely evident throughout the entire wedding planning process. He makes things happen and has a blast problem-solving to figure it all out. She dreams big and comes up with huge, incredible ideas. Kim, the bride, is an absolutely visionary. The way everyone came together, put forth their talents, pitched in, and did everything in their power to pull this off honestly amazes me. I found myself feeling emotional multiple times throughout this weekend and while editing the photos not only because of my love for Kim + Ryan, but also my love for this community. I honestly don't know where to begin with Kim + Ryan's Moab wedding, but I'll start with this: it's pretty obvious the wedding was epic, amazing, and crazy, but I hope that you take your time looking through these photos to see beyond the shock-factor because this wedding is a very accurate representation of nearly every reason we've fallen so deeply in love with Moab.
