A couple getting married in a hot-air balloon ended up assuming a crash position as the thing crash-landed in San Diego.

Shortly after the couple exchanged 'I dos,' the basket started to swing like a pendulum - with the entire wedding party inside it - and the pilot was forced to bring it down in a backyard.

Luckily, no one was seriously injured.

Firefighters said the pilot had been trying to land when the balloon was blown off course. The couple was unfazed. The bride said, 'If I get married again, I'll get married in a hot air balloon.'
