Pebble Beach Elopement

Elopement
Written By Flora Gibson

J + M had the most beautiful and heartfelt elopement day. J + M opted to pop champagne at their Airbnb and drive to J’s favorite private beach where she has been tide pooling since she was six for their ceremony. They wanted to include all the things that they love and enjoy doing together from hunting for abalone to making a sign in the sand and dancing to their favorite song. As the rain started to fall and they finished their first dance the light peeked out from between the clouds and a rainbow appeared. The absolute joy and laughter that J + M emitted was contagious. I can’t think of a couple more in love.

Brandon and Kathryn had the most beautiful Big Sur Proposal. Originally Brandon wanted to propose at Ventana, but decided to switch it last minute to a surprise photo shoot with a proposal during it. I had so much fun planning with Brandon and showing them some views they hadn’t seen before. From their cliff proposal to running on the beach, it was the perfect combo of epic views and lots of movement, playful fun. I’m so honored Brandon trusted me with his Big Sur proposal.

Emily and Austin eloped at Jedediah Smith Redwoods this week in California. With a private ceremony surrounded by massive redwoods, they continued their day with a beautiful first dance on the beach, followed by a picnic, where they mixed custom cocktails, surrounded by my favorite feature, beach grass. They had such a beautiful day crossing back and forth between the Oregon and California border.
