My fiancee and I are starting to plan our wedding and I suggested Kodak Rock @ UNF and while expecting to get smacked ..... she said that might be cool. Called the Ranger Station and the guy i need to speak with is out till tomorrow, but the lady I spoke to said people do it all the time. She said there are permits we have to get but that it wasn't that big of a deal.

Anbody here get married there? Or know anyone that has?

Might need to recruit/hire some 4x4 taxies in the near future .... lol .... to ferry family members up RML.

Boy that would be something else. :driver:

Id love to see a wedding at UNF, would you still wear suits and ties?
 
instead of throwing rice, can we park further up the hill and kick rocks and dirt at you?
 
I'd rather get married at the top of Upper 2 or something.. UNF is almost always either muddy, or dusty as hell.
 
wedding

Not at URE but was part of this one

are you going to serve pork rinds and PBR at the reception?

A wedding at URE is kinda WT but thats just my opinion. The institution of marriage is a serious deal, unless of course it's your 4th or 5th wedding.

Then I guess it is OK to Joke around with it!?!?!

ROFLMAO - :lol:

Thanks -
I gotta change my sig line.
 
I would love to get married on a trail, but realistically my family and Friends will not find the excitement in it. Could you see me trying to get granny up on a rock to watch?? So my future hubby will have to settle for a wheeling trip across at least 3 states for a honeymoon
 
Do it...I had a casual wedding outside at my inlaws farm. We wore the Tux/Dress but my wife was barefooted and the dress code for guest was total casual (shorts etc..) we got married had a pig pickin and drank the hell out of some kegs. Everyone there said it was the best time they'd had at a wedding. My inlaws weren't crazy about the beer being good christian folks, I explained that if I was going to inconvienece my friends and take a Saturday away from them , I needed to have beer involved, they agreed it was all good.
Point is, it's your wedding and most people do the traditional church thing and I know when I get one of those invites I"m like "shit, there goes a weekend." I think you would remember it and have a special wedding more so than the run of the mill set up. As for it being a white trash thing as suggested, my country club parents said the same thing about my wedding, I love them , but FUGGUM! it's our wedding. As for it being "serious" that's what your relationship is about not the ceremony...
Of course at UNF you can forget about the beer....lol
 
Yeah, I'm with Woody. Our wedding was on the beach, and some friends of ours got married last summer on a pass in CO at 13k'. We had to wheel about an hour to get there. Had a nice little reception afterward, and an after-party at the American Legion bar. I wore shorts to that one. :rolleyes:

Figure the ceremony itself only lasts 10 mins if you stretch it out, so do whatever makes you and your fiancee happy. That's all that really matters.
 
First of all, Kevin, congratulations. :)

Wow, I'm pretty sure you're not invited.

I know a couple who got married at the top of Sugar Mountain and ferried all their guests (probably about 100) up on the lift.

A wedding is supposed to be a celebration... so celebrate however you choose!
 
Marriage is a real institution, my friends...
But who the hell wants to be institutionalized?


I say go for it. I've had many friends get married outdoors, some in gazebos, some in BFE backwoods. All cool.

Ive heard of crazier things. I think it would be pretty cool. I dont think, strike that, I know VERY well that my wife wouldnt go for it :)

We got married in Vegas. 50 people flew out, had a great wedding/reception package at the MGM grand with a kick ass honeymoon suite on the top floor, and heard from the guests that it was the best wedding they ever went to. A no BS, all fun wedding and id do it again in a heartbeat!

I'd love to see pictures!!

A buddy of mine got married on a trail in TN. Him and his (now ex) wife met each other on the trails, so it was fitting. He is a good ole' boy, so of course he had his 90 lb. Rottweiller on hand (in a bow tie no less) and they showed up in his built-to-the-hilt YJ. Nothing says "I do" like the roar of a Vortec...
 
Wedding

I say go for it. Anyone that you care about won't mind getting in there and watching you get married. And never know, those that have not done this just may enjoy the ride/scenery too.

If you have a problem getting a preacher I can recommend this guy. He is my best friend and just became a preacher last spring.

And, he has his own rig to get there in!

That's a rough thing to say about someone's wedding. We did the traditional thing (the wife is catholic and wanted the full mass). I would've done it at Cape Lookout with Jeeps pulling trailer loads of folks and boat parking in the basin. I think the top of Daniel is prettier than RML tho...

Ya I say go for it...


Jess and I are getting married overseas this Sept..
We say All Family and Freinds are invited if you can get there :)
 
Why would you want to waste time getting married when you could be wheelin there?

You are correct marriage is a serious deal, but a Wedding is nothing more than a expensive party with fancy clothes.

I say go for it. My Wife I and eloped and we have been together for 15 years. We got married at Lake Tahoe and it was just the 2 of us
 
My 2 cents for what it is worth is to do it. I had a blue jean wedding and my groomsmen all wore black jeans with henleys and the bridesmaids all wore cotton dresses. All my guest wore sundresses or even shorts -- it was hot -- July 20th -- and I wanted everyone to be comfortable. By the way-- my dress only costed $65, but it was beautiful and everyone had a great time. We got married in our front yard and are now working on our 10th year. The ceremony does not make or break a marriage -- have fun and do it your way.
