I love the location that Sam and Caroline chose for their small wedding. It was a short hike to the location but just enough to feel the adventure of it all.

I also loved the ceremony. It was truly designed by the Bride & Groom themselves. Their good friend led the ceremony and each and every guest on the short list had a contribution.

Also, it was really cool to watch the raincloud hold off until just the very end of the ceremony. Everyone came prepared for the rain too.

I think the rainy hike back actually added to the adventure. It was all very beautiful.

We hung out in the parking area a little while for the rain to calm down a bit. Then I accompanied the Bride, Groom and a few friends on a separate Special Wedding Day hike on a different trail.
