What does a 5 hour Yosemite Elopement Day look like? Yosemite National Park is one of my favorite locations for couples to elope. Whether you want to adventure for 4, 8, or 12 hours, there is so much to do with the time you have.
We recently went to Yosemite National Park for an elopement and spent 5 hours adventuring with the couple. The day was beautiful and the weather was perfect for December. And honestly, we had such a blast, the day flew by, but we did SO MUCH in that amount of time!
Now I totally understand, not everyone wants to spend all day hanging out taking photos (but it’s so worth it!) just because you don’t need it and that’s ok! With whatever amount of time we do have together, I will make the most of it, while showing off some of Yosemite’s best locations and capture the most breathtaking photos for you!
There are some Yosemite locations where we will need to spend the day together. For example, if you are wanting to start your photo adventure in the valley, but finish at Taft Point, we’ll definitely be together all day!
For a shorter day, we could explore Yosemite Valley and maybe have time for a short hike. With all of my elopements, I plan out the entire time we will spend together.
