Hiking a mile and a half with your nearest and dearest probably isn’t for everyone, but this outdoorsy pair and their awesome family and friends took on the challenge. And boy, was it worth it! We’re talking cliff views, trees everywhere, and a picnic and lawn games reception. Plus, there’s a gorgeous video that’ll take your breath away. Oh, and don’t miss the special message written in sandwiches!

The couple dealt with some challenges: disabilities, long-distance planning, and how to incorporate all their interests — but damn did they do it well! Smoosh your face against the screen and give these cuties a virtual hug.
