I can’t think of a more adventurous couple than Susan & Ben. I remember hearing about their engagement and how Ben proposed to Susan at Alamere Falls, an incredible hike in Northern California with a waterfall on the beach that flows into the Pacific Ocean. And when they couldn’t have their wedding in 2020, they […]
