Camping is more than a hobby for the couple. It&#8217;s become a major part of their life, and so has their TAB 320.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It seems like every wedding has a funny or unusual story attached to it that forms the basis of reminiscences for years to come. But for Sarah and Albert Maldonado who were married June 19, 2021, it wasn\u2019t so much a unique experience as a unique \u201cguest\u201d that will liven up those anniversary remembrances\u2014specifically their TAB 320 who shared in the nuptial celebrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The couple had been dating for 11 years, having met in their freshman year at college, before finally tying the knot this year. They purchased their TAB in 2019 and haven&#8217;t had the opportunity to travel as much as they would like due to the state of the pandemic over the last year and a half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Albert had been a tent camper though Sarah didn\u2019t join him in his outdoor adventures until they were given a pop-up trailer in 2015. Camping together has brought them closer together, Sarah said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14924\" width=\"568\" height=\"379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-5.jpg 640w, https:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-5-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-5-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 568px) 100vw, 568px\" \/><figcaption><em>Albert and Sarah Maldonado tied the knot in June.

Ideally, they were looking for a lower-maintenance camper that would be small enough to be able to hitch up and go but still be large enough for a kitchen and standing clearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI actually remember seeing a nuCamp trailer being towed on the freeway once and I thought to myself, \u2018How cute and perfect is that?!\u2019\u201d recalled Sarah. \u201cI guess in a way I manifested that for us and several years later, we bought our own.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-7.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14927\" width=\"338\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-7.jpg 427w, https:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-7-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 338px) 100vw, 338px\" \/><figcaption><meta charset=\"utf-8\"><em>Albert and Sarah Maldonado tied the knot in June.

You get to see and visit new places, but there\u2019s an element of serenity and comfort you get while camping that hotels might not provide. You can travel thousands of miles &#8230; but still feel right at home.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for making the TAB an honored guest at their ceremony and reception, it was just a foregone conclusion, as was bringing along their pups, Cash and Bert. When planning the ceremony and reception, the couple wanted all the elements of the day to be meaningful in some way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCamping represents us completely, which is why we decided to have a three-day wedding weekend at a venue located in the forest, just an hour away from Yosemite, which happens to be one of our favorite places we\u2019ve ever camped,&#8221; Sarah explained. &#8220;I knew having our camper at our wedding would not come as a surprise to any of our wedding guests, because they\u2019ve either camped with us before or knew how much we loved it!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The TAB 320 also did double-duty as part of the scenery at the wedding, she noted. The camper was parked behind a lounge area at the reception, making it a perfect backdrop for guests to take photos with as they signed the guestbook or sat around the campfire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, like so many things since the pandemic arrived on our shores, honeymoon plans were temporarily put on hold. The unpredictable nature of COVD-19 meant the couple didn\u2019t take a honeymoon this past summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, said Sarah, \u201cwe plan on making up for that now with several camping adventures already planned for the remainder of this year! Some of our destinations include road-tripping up the Pacific Northwest and visiting as many National Parks in the U.S. as possible. So far, we\u2019ve been to Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Death Valley, Joshua Tree, the Mojave, and the Sequoias!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when she says \u201cwe\u201d it\u2019s clear that it\u2019s not just herself and her husband she\u2019s referring to, but the two dogs and of course, the camper\u2014all part of the Maldonado family!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14925\" width=\"579\" height=\"386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-6.jpg 640w, https:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-6-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/nucamprv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Sarah-6-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 579px) 100vw, 579px\" \/><figcaption><meta charset=\"utf-8\"><em>Albert and Sarah Maldonado tied the knot in June.
