Our Wedding

Just before their 6 year dating anniversary, Michael proposed to Brooke on Big Island of Hawai'i at Akaka Falls State Park, love was definitely in the air and of course it was a BIG YES!!

Our Story

Photos

Right in our back yard. Our regular hanging out dog walk spot. Has fishing, camping, lake, beach, and hikes ranging from 1 to 16 miles. We recommend Bear Hair Gap for a more moderate hike to a great view of the park, or Trahlyta Lake Trail for something more casual. Please don't get lost in the back country.

Vogel State Park 

Visit our local stop along the Appalachian trail just a few miles from the wedding. From here you can take several hikes that go along and branch off the main trail.

Mountain Crossings

Relatively well maintained dirt road drive takes you to easy to walk (1/2mile) to waterfalls hidden in the Chattahoochee.

Helton Creek Falls

Tallest point in GA with a view that lets you see 100miles in every direction.

Brasstown Bald Visitors Center

Steepest way up the mountain but worth the views and pull offs along the way.

Russell–Brasstown Scenic Byway

2.25 mile round trip, moderate. While not a long hike it is all elevation gain. One of our favorite hikes for every season, leads to a spectacular rock outcropping.

For some reason we have a German alpine village right down the road, but come take advantage and enjoy some festive beers.

Helen Oktoberfest

Just over a mile round trip. Paved and easy to get to a spectacular double decker waterfall.

Anna Ruby Falls Visitor Center & Gift Shop

At the base of the scenic hwy. 6.6 mi out and back moderate hike, minimal altitude gain. Leads to 40ft waterfall cutting through the cliff. Totally worth
