My brother and his wife... on New years eve in 1999 -- took a friend each, and an ordained minister (who was a friend of theirs)(not telling anyone what was going on) and hiked to the top of some beautiful mountain near Seattle... In their backpack, they had two bouquets of flowers, for the bride and the maid of honor, a camera, and a veil... They wore hiking clothes and hiking boots... When they reached the top fo the mountain.. they told their friends why they were there - his wife put on her veil... the flowers were distributed, and they were married-- pictures were taken and they are absolutely beautiful.
(the fun began when they called my parents when they got back...
a few months later mommy dearest calmed down and hosted a beautiful party in their home for all their friends...
a wedding is what you make it - and the reception doesn't have to happen the day of..
