Animal lover Linda Haley wanted something unique for her impending wedding to fianc茅 Brennan Reid.

When the residents of Tucson, Ariz., who live in the desert with two black Labrador dogs and a 香蕉视频直播淐hi-weenie,香蕉视频直播� (Chihuahua), decided to combine nuptials with a visit to family in Kelowna on their summer vacation, Reid began searching for a unique location.

He found it in the Kangaroo Creek Farm, the popular attraction on Old Vernon Road by the Kelowna Airport.

香蕉视频直播淲hen I found the kangaroo farm, I asked her if she was sure about getting married there,香蕉视频直播� laughed Reid, an Amazon warehouse worker. 香蕉视频直播淪he couldn香蕉视频直播檛 have been happier.香蕉视频直播�

Added Haley, a building permit specialist for the City of Tucson: 香蕉视频直播淚 wanted the most unique place possible. When he asked me if I was sure (about getting married at a kangaroo farm), I said, 香蕉视频直播榠t香蕉视频直播檚 animals. How am I not sure?香蕉视频直播櫹憬妒悠抵辈��

The pair tied the knot Wednesday morning, Aug. 9, prior to the farm香蕉视频直播檚 official opening for the day, before three family members as witnesses (including sisters of Reid香蕉视频直播檚 deceased mother), and in front of the farm香蕉视频直播檚 koi pond. An officiant from Vernon married the couple - a first for him at the animal farm.

Then, they walked around the farm and posed for many pictures with the marsupials.

It香蕉视频直播檚 the first marriage for both and will give them quite a story to tell upon returning home.

香蕉视频直播淟inda has FONSO - Fear of Not Showing Off, so we can say we went to Canada, got married and happened to have kangaroos at the wedding as well,香蕉视频直播� said Reid.

The pair have been together for six years, meeting at a going away party.

香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 pretty special,香蕉视频直播� said Haley. 香蕉视频直播淚f it wasn香蕉视频直播檛 for the friend香蕉视频直播檚 party, we likely never would have met.香蕉视频直播�

Haley and Reid were bound for Vancouver Island from Kelowna for the next part of their joint family visit/honeymoon.

But they left the kangaroos behind.

香蕉视频直播淚f it was an option, we香蕉视频直播檇 try to smuggle one past customs but I don香蕉视频直播檛 know how that would go over,香蕉视频直播� chuckled Reid. 香蕉视频直播淲e haven香蕉视频直播檛 worked out the details.香蕉视频直播�

It香蕉视频直播檚 believed to have been the first wedding in the kangaroo farm香蕉视频直播檚 13-year history.
