Adventure Wedding on the Potomac River and Hike to Weverton Cliffs with Kaylyn & Michael
We are all about making your wedding day exactly what you want, not worrying about all the pressure from society to do things a certain way. So we absolutely LOVED this hybrid wedding with Kaylyn and Michael in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia.
Kaylyn and Michael are both in the Navy, Michael is stationed out to sea around Hawaii and Kaylyn stationed in California. This made it a little tricky to plan their wedding in West Virginia where Michael is from but we were there with them every step of the way to make sure these two had the day they were dreaming of. They knew they wanted to include a hike with just the two of them but they also wanted to include their families so we helped them create a hybrid style wedding. They both got ready at Keep Tryst Manor and met their families there. After we took some getting ready and detail photos we took the short hike down to the Potomac river bank where they held their intimate ceremony with friends and family, officiated by Lisa at The Wedding Niche. After their super sweet ceremony we took photos with all their family members before the family hiked back to give these two a private moment on the river to soak in the “we just got f*&king married” bliss. Their families headed back to their airbnb to set up for dinner while we took Kaylyn and Michael for a hike up to Weverton Cliffs. They wanted to experience an epic short hike just the two of them (and us of course) so they could say some more private vows with sunset views. The sun really showed off and kept us warm the day before Thanksgiving. They said their private vows, popped a bottle of wine and had a drink, danced on the top of the world and then we hiked back down. What a perfect day, a perfect way to have it all with this hybrid style adventure wedding. Including family but also going on a private adventure all in one day is the DREAM! These two ended their night having dinner and cake with their family making this both a micro wedding and adventure all in one!
Big thanks to these local vendors for making this magical day happen!
