Yosemite National Park is a stunning venue for a wedding no matter the season, but fall is truly magical. The falls may not be flowing, but the grandeur of the granite is still there, the light is amazing, and the fall color is truly spectacular. To top it all off, the crowds are gone, the days are cool, and you can feel that you have this amazing place all to yourselves for a brief period of time. That’s the setting for Sarah and Zak’s wedding this past fall. It was one of the most unique and personally meaningful ceremonies I’ve been witness to. From the “Story of how they met” written by their best friend and officiant, to the coin toss to see who got to say their vows first, to the great party to finish the night, everything was perfect.
