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.

Carmel Engagement Session

H + J chose Carmel by the Sea for their engagement session. They have known each other since high school, and their relationship is so full of laughter that it was easy to capture them naturally. I appreciate both of you for trusting me to preserve this time of your life in Carmel. I love Carmel for engagement sessions as a variety of landscapes and the ability to get away from crowds is second to none.

K + J eloped this week in the beautiful redwoods of California. They stayed at the beautiful Glen Oaks Big Sur and brought their amazing friend Micheal to perform a heartfelt ceremony in the redwoods. My favorite part of their day was how they got ready together in such a sweet way and set aside 10 min for creative photos in the light of their cabin. I loved the small cake that their friend made them with the cutest cake topper! ( a Polaroid of them!)

Deetjens Big Sur is one of my favorite hotels for clients to stay at during their California elopement. It is one of the oldest hotels in Big Sur, with its charm and unique vibes. S + M got ready at the beautiful antique cabin in the woods and their ceremony under the redwoods, followed by a first dance and picnic at the beach. What a beautiful day!
