A Californian couple have tied the knot on Newport Beach, wearing jetpacks.

"This is amazing. It still doesn't feel real. It's so surreal," said Amanda Volf as she waited to jetpack across the water, meet her father on the beach and exchange vows on the sand.

As a former wedding planner, the 25-year-old from Grand Rapids, Michigan wanted to make a different kind of splash on her special day.

"I never really dreamed of my wedding, but if I did, I think this would be it," she said.

The bride and groom practised steering the jetpacks for a couple of hours on the morning of their wedding day.

"They're a blast to use, they're easy to learn, and you look really cool when you're on them," said the groom, Grant Engler.
