WHAT! This is yet another "why didn't I think of that?" moment. You can get married in caves!
Kathleen Crowley said

I SERIOUSLY thought about that when visiting Luray caverns (in VA) a couple of years ago, but sadly all the Valium in the world wouldn't get my claustrophobic father into a cave.

Wow, Im torn between my love of nature and my fear of cannibal mutant rat people….

Holy crap, indeed.
No one told me about caves! Someone needs to make a public service announcement. Or rather, I wish THIS public service announcement had come sooner.
Jill said
YES! I love the whole goddess/yonic imagery of marriage in a dark, wet cavern… not to mention the matching dork-lamps in the last photo.

We really wanted to do this until we realised one little detail… 90% of our families are quite claustrophobic!!! I recommend http://www.jenolancaves.org.au/ for any Aussie Brides wanting to do this- there is a cave called the Cathedral Chamber with brilliant acoutstics for weddings!

Ariel,
I gotta say I am really hoping you do a profile on Brinbat. Her dress is amazing, the photos are gorgeous and the cave setting is fantastic. And I love her hiking boots – even more than I love Fluevogs.

that first photo is soooooooooo striking! i am not really a nature person, but that makes ME start to consider getting married in the caves…
Brina Bat said
Wooohoooo!! So fun to see my fun cave wedding up on your site!
One thing though – the Nathan Williams link is the wrong person. (Eeeeek!) His site is Realms of Reality – you can also look him up on Flckr too – where he has current caving photos.

We're getting married in an underground venue called The Caves! Not a cave specifically, more like a vault.

I JUST recently drove by Luray Caverns in western VA, and for a split second I wondered what a wedding in the caverns would be like. Now I see the vision!

I'm planning a cave wedding myself! I didn't know it was becoming a popular thing, that's great. My fiance and I love caves and we live in Missouri, which is full of them.

My fiance and I decided to go the cave wedding route about two months ago. We're going to be married in Howe Caverns.
I didn't realize it was so popular.

As of yesterday (yay!) we're planning to have our wedding in the show caves in Wales. I'm so excited. It's lovely to see others choosing to marry underground
