What our $3,700 California wedding looks like: a budget breakdown

It is the early morning exactly one year ago. I’m standing up front, surrounded by magnificent and giant redwood trees that have been living here for thousands of years. On my left side, I see close friends and family members. On my right side, our wedding officiant is reminding everyone to be present and absorb the energy of such a unique nature setting in this very special moment. Holding my hands and standing in front of me is the love of my life (Mrs. Nomad Numbers). She is wearing a stunning dress that is competing with the early sunlight that is illuminating the entire grove we are gathered in. As I look into her eyes, I can feel the love radiating around her. This was one of the highlights on the best day of my life that took place exactly one year ago.

Weekend Guide – Superbloom, California

As we came back to California to spend some quality time with family and friends, we decided to chase the rare superbloom which typically occurs once every 10 years or so. Due to a persistent drought in California, this year’s was particularly abundant which made for a unique and wonderful show we did not want to miss. In this post, we are sharing our itinerary as well as how much we spent! If you are in California and haven’t seen the superbloom, you still have a couple of weeks to catch up before it starts fading away!
