The Couple and Their Decision to Elope in Yosemite

An elopement is a perfect way to create a beautiful, unique wedding day experience that is completely your own!

For Keri and Bradley’s elopement in Yosemite, the couple decided to do things on their own terms. They envisioned an intimate experience that stayed true to the core foundation of their relationship. That’s where Yosemite came in.

Originally from New York, Keri and Bradley have traveled all over the globe and experienced dramatic landscapes. On one of their trips together, the couple visited Yosemite and had such a special time that they wanted to create that experience all over again.

They really wanted their day to be intimate and have it be just about them with no guests. We researched and found a private cabin nestled up in the mountains, surrounded by nature, while also providing incredible views. It felt so intimate and private and was the perfect place to kick off their national park elopement.

From a Private Cabin First Look To an Intimate Ceremony at Tunnel View, this Is How To Elope In Yosemite Adventurously

Keri and Bradley’s elopement day started off at their private cabin up in the mountains. Once the couple had finished getting ready and did their big reveal, we all headed into the park for their elopement ceremony.

I found them the perfect location where they could have a private ceremony and exchange their intimate vows in front of Tunnel View, an iconic viewpoint in Yosemite.

After the ceremony, the three of us drove around and explored Yosemite Valley together and just had an amazing time.

Keri and Bradley told me that they both really wanted photos with a view of Half Dome in the background. Glacier Point, which has one of the best views of Half Dome in the whole park, was closed for the year, but that didn’t stop us from scouting a location where we could still get incredible views! I found the perfect location with a close-up view and the best part was that this location felt very private, giving Keri and Bradley everything they had wanted.

We decided to top the night by going to Lower Yosemite Falls where we got all misty. The falls were gushing during this time of year which gave us incredible photos!

Keri and Bradley’s Yosemite National Park elopement felt so relaxed. The couple really got the chance to take their time, take a breather and take it all in and be present with one another.

Keri and Bradley, congrats again on your elopement and your beautiful marriage!

Kind words from the couple:

Words cannot even express how incredible of an experience our elopement at Yosemite National Park was with Sergio of Henry Tieu Photography! Our photos came out absolutely stunning, and we cannot stop obsessing over them! 🥰 Sergio was the best to work with; he made the entire planning process so easy from start to finish and was such a comfortable presence throughout our whole wedding day—it felt like he was already one of our dearest friends. We highly and enthusiastically recommend Henry Tieu Photography and couldn’t have been more happy with the professionalism that was shown to us as well as the results!
