I’m guessing the couple helicoptered up to the top of Half Dome for this. Otherwise, it’s a 5-hour hike and climb from the valley below to where they are in the picture.

If any of you are in decent shape, you gotta put the Half-Dome climb on your bucket list.

It’s worth the workout.

Don't have to get there by helicopter. Here's the story of a photographer who followed two lovebirds up the cable: http://travel.resourcemagonline.com/2015/07/a-rare-and-beautiful-wedding-on-the-edge-of-half-dome-in-yosemite/1675/

The story is worth reading, but the executive summary is: they vacuum packed their formal wear, and back packed everything to the top in July of 2015.

Eventually I'm sure some knuckleheads will tie the knot on El Capitan while completely vertical -- it may already have been done...

Clouds Rest is not too shabby.
