Get Married in Space for Just $2M



Getting your ashes shot into space when you die is so 2007. The space fad for 2008 is weddings! Or at least signing up for them. A Japanese company called First Advantage has joined forces with an American aerospace firm called Rocketplane to offer weddings 100 kilometers (62 miles) above earth. First Advantage now joins Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic in the space-marriage racket.

The $2 million covers not only the flight on the Rocket Plane XP, but also a ground-based party where friends and family can watch a live stream of the zero-G ceremony. The company will even even throw in a wedding dress! The first ceremonies will take place in 2011, beginning with the wedding of Cindy Cashman, entrepreneur and author, and Mitch Walling.
