A couple got engaged - and married - in a surprise ceremony on a plane

Felipe Kolm/Warda NetworkJürgen Bogner isn't one to wing it. He spent four months planning the perfect surprise proposal on an Austrian Airlines flight for longtime girlfriend Nathaly Eich. But the surprise didn't end there - they got married on the spot, 35,000 feet in the air, surrounded by family, flight attendants, and fellow passengers. They then landed in Greece, their honeymoon destination.

Eich was born in Estonia, but both she and Bogner grew up in Austria. They met at a convention in 2006, and stayed in touch, even when Eich spent time abroad, studying in Singapore, London, and Barcelona.

"When I came back, he didn't waste any time in asking for a date in 2011," Eich told INSIDER.

Bogner had been pondering the perfect proposal since last year. It was on a trip to New York that he had the idea to propose - and get married - on a plane. "It's great to be on an airplane, because when you land, you're in another place," he said.

They now chronicle their newlywed bliss on their Instagram account, cherriesandbanana.
