The offbeat bride: Sarah, drafter and seasonal park ranger

Her offbeat partner: Aaron, construction manager and student

Date and location of wedding: Camp Wilkerson, Rainier, Oregon — September 11, 2011

Our offbeat wedding at a glance: Aaron and I had a three-day campout with lots of family and friends in a forested county park about an hour from Portland. We were thinking something more primitive, like 12 miles into Eagle Cap Wilderness, but we also wanted our families of all ages to be able to attend. So we picked a place accessible by paved roads. And Camp Wilkerson was a great mixture of isolation with amenities!

LuvFest 2010 was an amazing homespun music fest featuring live music, lawn games, bonfires, fire dancers, multi-day camping, and a little rain to cool everyone off. That isn't enough? Oh, there was a wedding too. Love was all around at this festival of killer jams and awesome vows.
