Bride And Groom Rope Swing Off Cliff Taking Plunge Into Married Life

A newlywed couple took the ultimate plunge into married life – by planning an adrenaline fueled-wedding which included jumping off a CLIFF EDGE. Kristyn Gingrich, 35, and Dennis Gingrich, 67, from Lake Placid, Florida, first got to know each other around eight years ago, and both had very different visions of what their future might hold. Dennis, who is widowed, didn’t see himself getting married again, while Kristyn had always envisioned a big, grand white wedding – but in the end, the couple did the exact opposite of those things. The pair said after the pandemic, their priorities changed and talk of a wedding started – with their idea of a big day fitting into their love of traveling, rather than spending large sum of money on a big party. They started planning, with Kristyn searching online for "fun places to elope in The States," and discovering a company called Vows With Views, who are rebranding as GlampFire Travel. Having looked through the company's photos, Kristyn saw an image of a bride rappelling down a cliff in front of the stunning backdrop of Moab and decided that was the one. Within 30 minutes they had scheduled a call with the company's owner, Mallory, and after one conversation, the wheels were in motion for their big few days, starting on September 30, 2025. For the ceremony itself, Kristyn and Dennis stayed off grid in Mallory's Airstream caravan, before Kristyn’s mom officiated the ceremony during golden hour just off the Million Dollar Highway. Then, the following morning, the adventure began.
