A traditional wedding was never in the cards for Jocelyn Stanek and Logan Fetterhoff. An athletic couple with a penchant for adventure, they set their sights, appropriately, on the scenic Glacier Point in Yosemite National Park for their private vows. As the sun had barely begun to flood the valley, the bride and groom—sporting their full wedding attire—shared handwritten missives at the peak with sweeping views. Surrounded by breathtaking views of granite cliffs and cascading waterfalls, their ceremony felt intimate and timeless, setting the tone for the unforgettable day ahead.
After exchanging vows, Jocelyn and Logan spent the day exploring Yosemite’s iconic sites. They picnicked in El Capitan Meadows, cutting their cake while marveling at climbers on the towering granite wall through binoculars. Wandering through Mariposa Grove’s ancient sequoias—Logan’s favorite part of the day—brought a grounding tranquility, while their sunset at Taft Point offered a moment of reflection on their shared adventure.
Jocelyn’s off-the-shoulder gown paired beautifully with her white bouquet of roses and orchids. Their minimalist approach focused on the park’s natural beauty, incorporating just a few traditions like cake cutting. Inspired by previous travels to national parks, their elopement embodied their passion for adventure and simplicity.
For couples considering an elopement, Jocelyn and Logan suggest staying hydrated, planning downtime and packing essentials to fully embrace the journey.
