Twenty-two brides and their grooms were injured when a hydrogen balloon exploded during their group wedding ceremony in Fangcheng county, Henan province, on Sunday.
Two of the couples were injured seriously, doctors said.
The explosion took place when the couples surrounded the massive hydrogen balloon to "let their love fly" in the county's Wenhua square.
Most of the victims' hair and wedding gowns were burned in the accident.
