I am looking to see if the aggie family can help me out. My fiancee and I are getting married Aug 1st 2026 and would like to do our exit in a helicopter. I wanted to see if anyone has resources or contacts they can provide to help me with this. Any helicopter type is fine, but UH-60 or UH-1 would be our first choices.

Thanks and Gig'em

Obligatory: Have you checked with the association? They'll pay for half.

Bruh...

Your fiance is the one who wants this and is testing you to see how much you will give into her childish whims over the course of the marriage, however long it may last.

Best plan is to put a stop to it before the wedding. You could even try selling it as using the money you would waste on a helicopter ride for an even more kick ass honeymoon.

Your future father in law will respect you more for being able to tell his little girl "No" because he sure can't.

Ok well thanks for your opinion but this was actually my idea and our honeymoon was gifted to us so we dont have to pay for that. Go be a jackass elsewhere

Uhhh…this is the GB, sir. There isn't a better place on the internet to be a jackass.

That's like going to a McDonalds and saying "go be a burger flipper elsewhere"

Just take your shirt off and whip it round your head like a helicopter.

Way cheaper.

Wasn't there a couple that did this a few years ago and the helicopter crashed and they died?

But, I'm sure you will be fine.

Thought about joining the Army together and ending up in the same aviation unit. There's still time !

Will the copter be at the ceremony so that guests can tie beer cans to it and write on the windshield in shaving cream?

Oh, Navasota. You should have said so earlier.

Yep, in Uvalde. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/texas-newlyweds-killed-helicopter-crash-hours-after-their-wedding-n931246

For the OP, my younger son has a friend whose family owns a helicopter. He and his date took it to prom. All of the kids made fun of them for trying too hard. Since you are asking over here, you don't have a connection or access to a helicopter, which means you are trying way way too hard.

since most of the good jackass replies are taken I guess I'll be sort of helpful. There are some helicopter hog hunting outfits in the area that might be willing to do this.

Here's one that operates out of BCS. I have never used these guys nor do I know anything about them, they just popped up on google.

uh sir, that's not how the aggie family speaks to one another. Now let's see a rule 1 on the fiancee.

You appear to be relatively new to posting on Texags, so I'll give you two answers.

1.) I know helicopters have been rented and flown out of West Houston Airport in the Katy / Houston area. Not sure how that was arranged, but it happened at least once. Google.

and my GB answer:

2.) Wish I would have seen this post yesterday! I just booked my last helicopter for a corporate gig on that date. I'll put you on the wait list in case they cancel.

1. Purchase helicopter for memorable departure of wedding ceremony.
2. Forego honeymoon costs (invested in the copter).
3. Use helicopter a second time in a few years for a strong statement and memorable departure of the marriage.
4. ????
5. Profit.

I've seen too many of these stories going down YouTube rabbit holes.

Sir....this is the general board. If you want actual answers go elsewhere. I see you're a rook and all so I'm sure you expected serious replies. But yeah don't ever come to general board for anything other than snark and sarcasm

I had a boss many years ago when I worked in the helicopter industry who said:

"A helicopter is just like a woman. They're beautiful, but if you don't treat 'em right, they'll kill you."
