John Mulaney married Annamarie Tendler this past weekend in Boiceville, NY at the Onteora Mountain House. The scenic view perfectly highlighted the couple’s beginnings since the former Saturday Night Live writer met his love on a getaway to Martha’s Vineyard. Instead of asking guests for wedding gifts, the pair suggested donations to the Innocence Project, an organization that helps wrongfully convicted individuals through DNA testing, according to UsMagazine.com
What are some perks to tying the knot in the mountains?
Cupid’s Advice:Â
It’s not everyday that you hike a mountain to get hitched. Feel on top of the world by wedding the love of your life on a mountain top. A scenic wedding opens the door to millions of incentives for your special day. These three definitely rank high on the list for your special day with your new hubby:
1. Your relationship is literally held high:Â You and your man are elevated on one of nature’s highest pedestals. In ancient cultures, gods and goddesses lived on the mountain tops, and most momentous ceremonies happened upon mountain tops. On your wedding day you are announcing to the world your love, so why not literally shout it from a mountain top? Conclude your vows by shouting your “I dos” for all to hear.

2. The mountain serves as a symbol:Â Mountains have an incredible foundation. They symbolize strength, constancy, firmness, and eternity. Mountains unite sky and ground, lightning, thunder, nature, and wind. They encompass all of the natural elements in just one scene. This can equate to love. Just like your marriage vows describe, love encompasses a lot as well. Sickness, health, for richer and poorer, there is a lot to consider that creates the bond of love. You can apply these concepts to the theme of your wedding, and how you plan to spend the rest of your life with your love.
