'You may now light the brides': Daredevil brides light their wedding dresses on fire during ceremony

These two brides seem to love each other with the red-hot intensity of a thousand suns.

April Choi, 31, and Bethany Byrnes, 28, set their wedding dresses on fire after they walked down the aisle. No big deal, you say? They were wearing the wedding dresses when they were lit on fire.

The brides are both variety entertainers, reports SWNS, and have both fire-eating and fire-breathing on their resumes.

The newlyweds started with a wedding reception, and then, after sunset, they said their vows at Camp Tanager in Mount Vernon, Iowa. Surrounded by darkness, the two women said their promises, held hands, and their thrift-store dresses were doused with fuel.

“I was super nervous. I have done fire performance for fun and professionally, but as I watched the fuel being poured on April’s dress, I couldn’t help but think it was a ton of fuel to be wearing,” Byrnes said.

A member of Choi’s wedding party and a member of Byrnes’s wedding party, armed with two torches, lit the dresses.

“I have never seen two brides do something like this. I don’t know of any other person who has actually burnt their wedding dress at the wedding. Don’t think I will ever forget it and nor will anybody else who attended the wedding, especially our parents who were greatly concerned for our safety. They were very, very nervous,” Byrnes told SWNS.

Before comments roll in about how unsafe such a stunt was, guests of the wedding also work in the entertainment industry, including eight fire performers and a certified pyrotechnic.

The brides took safety precautions against burns by wearing leggings and tying their hair back. In the trains of their dresses, they attached slow-burning duck cloth canvas, sewn on in an easily detachable way.

“Every single thing we could think of that could possibly go wrong, we had contingency plans,” April told the news outlet. “I’m ecstatic with the photos. I wasn’t sure how it would work out, but it worked out beautifully.”

Needless to say, don’t try this stunt at your own wedding.
