We were supposed to get married on a bluff overlooking the Cook Inlet and Kachemak Bay, but the forecast said 98 percent chance of rain (thanks, Alaska), so we quickly rerouted to a friend%u2019s hangar. There, surrounded by airplanes, a boat, and a helicopter, we got married in a way only we could. And after the cake, the dancing, and the happy tears, we rolled into the local bar %u2013 still in full wedding attire. People cheered, the music got louder, and we ended our night in the most unexpected, perfect way.%u201dMost memorable moment%u2026For her: %u201cI was nervous all day %u2013 big crowds aren%u2019t my thing. But seeing Chase get emotional as I walked down the aisle made everything else fade. I felt safe. I felt home.%u201dReal WeddingDenali & ChaseJune 7, 2025Photography by Cabin Fever Photography
