Andy was one of Dara’s best friends in high school, and getting to know Rachel and their families has been incredible. The fact that their wedding was in Yosemite National Park was a triple bonus: epic family vacation, no cell phone coverage or internet, and quality time with friends! It couldn’t have been better (well aside from the no hot water thing.. haha).
All the guests stayed at the Wawona for the weekend, and at night a group of us would hang out around a hidden campfire site that a cool member of the staff showed us.
The ceremony was just outside of the Ahwahnee hotel in Yosemite Valley, where the traffic sucked but the view made it all worth it! The reception was back at the Wawona, where we were just a few feet from our hotel rooms. The food was delish, the drinks were cold, and everyone was so relaxed.
Afterward, we stayed a few extra days to enjoy the sights and take advantage of the group camping spot that the family had reserved. We had the whole site to ourselves! Hopefully, we’ll get to post some of those personal photos soon…
Andy and Rachel: you guys are beautiful.
