'Elvis' to marry couples mid-air


Story Tools

CHICAGO, Illinois (Reuters) -- Love is in the air.

Ten couples intend taking wedding vows in mid-air Monday night aboard a plane flying from Orlando to Las Vegas.

More than 100 passengers will witness the in-flight ceremony, to be conducted by a minister dressed as Elvis.

One bride, Donna McDaniel, 39, of Longwood, Florida, said she and her fiance, Arvis Irvin, 54, had hoped to have a small civil wedding ceremony after dating for five years.

"He still hasn't told anybody, but I have," McDaniel said of Monday's nuptials. "I'm an Elvis fanatic."

The ceremony will take place on a Boeing 757 operated by Song, the four-month-old low-fare unit of Delta Air Lines.
