Spring

Welcome to our wedding celebration at Serendipity Garden in Oak Glen, California. We are thrilled to be sharing in our joy as we take this next step in our journey together! Oak Glen has been a meaningful place for us both, with Andrew having fond memories of visits with family to pick apples as a kid. Now, it's a place where we'll unite our lives surrounded by cherished friends, family, and the enchanting nature of the gardens. Nature holds a special place in our hearts, and we couldn't think of a more perfect setting than the outdoor splendor of Serendipity Garden. As you journey along a path through the grounds, you'll experience an ambiance of lush flora, gently flowing streams, and groves of oaks. There, you'll witness the love and commitment we have for each other. This day isn't only about celebrating our love, but about honoring the people who have enriched our lives. We'd like you to know how much your presence means to us, and we truly hope you can be a part of creating unforgettable memories together. Mark your calendar for Sunday, March 31, 2024, and join us as we say "I do" amidst the beauty of the mountains and the warmth of our loved ones. We look forward to making beautiful memories together! Thank you for being a part of our lives and sharing this momentous occasion with us. With love and excitement, Andrew &amp; Bradon

Andrew & Bradon's Wedding

A Hilltop Proposal & Journey Ahead

On July 19, 2023, during a visit to the Schwarz family cabin in Colorado, Bradon surprised Andrew with a heartfelt proposal on a hilltop overlooking Baron Lake on the awe-inspiring Grand Mesa. With hearts full of love and joy, they both knew it was the perfect moment to say "YES" to the next chapter of their lives together. Now as they stand on the cusp of a new adventure, they're inviting their closest loved ones to join them. Witness and celebrate their commitment as they begin a lifetime of love, laughter, and beautiful moments together.

Cherishing Nature 

Among their favorite camping hideouts are the breathtaking Alabama Hills in Lone Pine, CA, where they've shared countless memorable adventures amidst the majestic landscape.

Adventuring Through Life

They love exploring new and old places together, from family gems in Colorado and Lake Powell to new places in Chimney Peak and Joshua Tree. When they aren't looking for social isolation, they often take trips to Napa Valley, Catalina Island, and the picturesque Monterey Bay.

Rooted in Family

Throughout their journey, family has always been a pillar of strength for Bradon and Andrew. They cherish their time spent with both of their families, creating beautiful memories and building lasting connections.

Nestled in a glen, situated at 5,024 feet, in the shadow of 8,700-foot Wilshire Peak, lies The Wildlands Conservancy’s 909-acre Oak Glen Preserve. The Preserve is the home of the Conservancy’s Southern California Montane Botanic Garden and Children’s Outdoor Discovery Center and includes the entire 114-year-old Los Rios Rancho Apple Farm. Wildlands acquired many of the prominent mountain peaks that were private inholdings in the National Forest including Wilshire Peak, Cedar Mountain, and Oak Glen Peak, which form the scenic backdrop of Oak Glen. The Botanic Garden has excellent representations of montane habitats including ponds, streams, wetlands, oak and pine forests, chaparral and willow woodland.

Oak Glen Preserve

Our story begins back in 2008, when a few buddies would meet up at Redlands Municipal Airport’s Hangar 24 for an afternoon of friendship and flying, followed by a debrief over cold homebrews. In time, one of these pilots, Ben Cook, dreamed up a wild idea: to start his own craft brewery named in honor of his friends’ favorite hangout. Ever since, Hangar 24 Craft Brewing has been making high-quality beer with a SoCal state of mind. We are avid brewers and aviators to this day, and we’re glad to have you on this adventure with us.

Hangar 24

San Jacinto State Park. During your approximately ten-minute journey, tram cars rotate slowly, offering picturesque and spectacular vistas of the valley floor below. Once you reach the Mountain Station—elevation 8,516 feet—enjoy two restaurants, observation decks, natural history museum, two documentary theaters, gift shop and over 50 miles of hiking trails.
