Located in the breathtakingly beautiful Yosemite Valley in Yosemite National Park, California, the Yosemite Chapel, Yosemite’s oldest structure, has touched the lives of untold thousands of people who have come from around the world to Yosemite Valley and been blessed through their visits to this serene environment. Countless numbers (including numerous wedding couples like the couple below) cherish their memories by having the Yosemite Chapel as the backdrop for treasured photographs.

Weddings, marriage vow renewals, baby dedications, baptisms, and other special occasions are celebrated year-round at numerous locations throughout the Yosemite Region through YosemiteWeddings.org, such as this beautiful, quite private spot, with phenomenal views in every direction ~ including the Yosemite Chapel, Yosemite Falls (which flow much of the year), Half Dome, lush meadows and forest, high cliffs, and a charming footbridge over the Merced River ~ all visible from one incredible spot!
