We found Rev. Anne Marie online, www.castleministries.com. She and Rev. Dorothy have been doing this for quite some time, and they actually gave us the ideas for where to get married. They sent us a bunch of different sample ceremonies and vows to choose from also.
I posted an ad on Craigs List for the witnesses! How else would I find people in Alaska? Can you imagine this – the ceremony is scheduled for noon and half an hour prior I’m running around the location in my dress begging people, “I’m getting married in half an hour, will you sign as a witness and take pictures with my camera for me?” LOL No way am I doing that, so I found people through Craigs List – Alaska.
If the weather permits we’re going to do it on Matanuska Glacier. You drive up to this park, and take a fifteen minute walk and you’re actually ON a glacier!
If it is scheduled to rain, we’ll go to Bird Point, which has a boarded walkway that leads out toward the inlet. It is surrounded by mountains and has a great view of the inlet and a covered pavilion. There are pictures here: http://www.castleministries.com/birdpoint.htm
