The brides all wore traditional wedding dresses while the grooms wore suits for the stunt on the Xiangjiang River in Zunyi city, Guizhou province.
All three couples belong to the local single bamboo rafting club, and chose to get married on the water to show their skill at the sport, reports People Daily.
The sport involves racing on the river while balancing on a locally produced bamboo pole around 20cm in diameter.
"They can sit or stand on the piece of bamboo and they can race and compete at other tasks using a thin bamboo oar," explains a club spokesman.
The Zunyi city sporting office says it is trying to promote the new sport and hopes it will become popular across the city.
