Santa Cruz Elopements

Santa Cruz elopements have a style that is uniquely their own. Known for our balmy climate, breathtaking coastline, redwood forests, and socially liberal leanings, Santa Cruz attracts couples who consider themselves a little offbeat, nontraditional, nature-lovers who are looking for an alternative to traditional venues where they can tie the knot.

We’re husband and wife team Maureen Thomson & Jeremy Myers and we love elopement weddings. We and our crew of talented wedding professionals have been putting together small weddings filled with laughter and happy tears in and around Santa Cruz since 2002.

If you’re envisioning:
  • A simple wedding in a breathtaking Santa Cruz beach or redwood location
  • Stunning professional photography
  • Actually enjoying your wedding day (What a concept!)
And you want
  • Access to our handpicked Santa Cruz wedding professionals
  • An all-inclusive intimate wedding package
  • Someone to handle all of the details for you
  • A wedding planner with local knowledge and small wedding expertise
  • The good, the bad and the ugly of locations including tips about dealing with tourist season, weather issues and potential yuckiness you’d never think of — until it happens.
  • A totally stress-free wedding experience!
And you DON’T want:
  • A big wed-a-palooza
  • To spend months planning a wedding on your own
  • The frustration of researching, interviewing and screening vendors
  • The uncertainty of trying to plan a long distance wedding
