A Valentine’s Day Wedding With a Twist

Why They Did It Before the Big Destination Wedding

From Tiki Bar to Tournament Arena

But the real spectacle? That came later.

That evening, everyone traveled to Buena Park for the full Medieval Times experience. Yes, the one with jousting knights, cheering crowds, and massive platters of food.
