California Redwood Coast Elopements

We extended our elopement packages into Northern California’s Redwood Coast in 2019 so we could offer remote redwood and ocean overlook elopements. This part of California offers old growth redwoods and dramatic ocean views. Being 250+ miles from San Francisco, it’s a bit more of an effort to get here, but it’s so worth the trip. You’ll find uncrowded, epic redwood forests and rocky cliff ocean overlooks along with pristine uncrowded beaches–all perfect for an intimate northern California elopement!

Because of the distance required for our photographers to access sites in this area, our Northern California Coastal Redwoods packages contain a minimum of two hours of photography. Most couples choose to have their ceremony and one hour of shooting among the redwoods, with a second hour of photography at one of our coastal sites. That offers the widest variety of backdrops for your elopement wedding photos.

If you’re envisioning:
  • An elopement among secluded old growth redwoods
  • Stunning professional photographs
  • Actually enjoying your wedding day (What a concept!)
And you want
  • Insider info on the most private redwood elopement sites.
  • Access to topnotch, experienced Northern California wedding vendors
  • Both redwood and ocean-backdrop photos
  • Someone to oversee all the details for you
  • A totally stress-free wedding experience!
And you DON’T want:
  • To be the center of attention in front of 100 wedding guests
  • Inexperienced wedding vendors
  • The stress of planning a California destination wedding on your own
  • Hordes of tourists walking by during your out-in-nature ceremony
  • Chaos, Drama & Regret surrounding your wedding day

Then we might a good fit for you. Email us and we’ll send you more information

I would highly recommend Blue Sky Elopements to others who want a memorable, stress free elopement in California. Even when we had to change the date and ceremony location due to the pandemic, they made it stress free. Maureen was quick to provide us with alternate locations, and she helped us select a beautiful redwood location. We appreciated the consistent communication and organization throughout the whole process. From the very beginning Maureen and her team did a great job at letting us know what to expect and made sure all of our questions were answered. All of the vendors they picked for us were very professional and great to work with including the photographer, officiant, and hair/makeup artist. The flowers were also beautiful. We want to thank everyone involved in making our elopement such a special day.

Maureen Thomson was invaluable in planning our small wedding during the Covid-19 pandemic. Her years of experience and professionalism were evident and reassuring in that we knew that all the details and contingencies were covered, including the weather watch in the days and hours prior to our outdoor ceremony on the California coast. In addition, Maureen went above and beyond her obligations by communicating our schedule with the chef who was planning our post-wedding dinner in a private residence. We highly recommend Maureen and Blue Sky Elopements!

My now husband and I (still weird to say) Just eloped in May. It was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Maureen was so attentive to how I wanted everything to be and I didn’t have to do any planning myself so it was very stress free. We started this process pre-covid and ended it as vaccinations in CA were up so everything worked out and was beautiful and stress free. I am definitely a planner and have anxiety so this was the best route for us so intimate and beautiful we will have a small reception later this year but our actual ceremony and time during this elopement was unforgettable, special and truly magical. 10/10 recommend.

If you’re looking for a truly stress free wedding experience, I would highly recommend using Blue Sky Elopements. We decided to elope where we had never been before, which is a huge risk, but everything was a success thanks to Blue Sky Elopements. Maureen was a pleasure to work with and was extremely responsive and helpful.

Just wanted to send a quick thank you for putting together such a great elopement package. Our officiant and photographer made our day absolutely perfect. Both were very inviting and were open to any ideas that we had. Our photographer provided us with pictures that are straight out of a fairy tale that we will cherish forever. Thank you again.
