Redwood Forest Elopement

Trinidad, California

Drawn to the rugged beauty of Northern California, this stylish couple held an intimate ceremony officiated by a close friend. They got ready together in separate rooms at a beautiful cliffside Airbnb in Trinidad near Sue-meg State Park. Their first look took place as sea lions barked in the distance.

Beneath a canopy of majestic giants at Prairie Creek Redwoods in Redwood National Park, there were joy filled vows and more than a few happy tears. Following the redwood ceremony, we headed to Luffenholtz Beach to wrap up the elopement with golden hour portraits as the sun sank into the Pacific.
