Planning

Oregon and California in a Day Elopement

Nature lovers Page + Taylor knew they wanted a wedding that was fun and light-hearted in spite of the trials that 2020 threw at them. That’s why they decided to elope in the Redwoods! A misty day gave way to stunning ocean views and intimate woodland moments. P + T also let their sense of style shine in their attire. P rocked an absolutely stunning floral wedding dress, but we’ll share more on that later! Here’s what she shared about their overall inspiration for the day:

Our inspiration was to have something light and joyful in such a chaotic year. We knew we wanted to say our vows in nature and we’ve always felt really connected to the Redwoods. It was important that we made our wedding bands together, wrote personal vows together, and created playlists together. We wanted it to be a day completely about us.

Are you ready to see their magical day through the lens of Dawn Jarvis? Let’s go!

Our Favorite Memory From The Wedding

Taylor: the most memorable moment was right after we finished our ceremony in the redwoods and Charles pronounced us husband and wife, and Page said “woah!”

Page: for me, it was reading my vows and looking at Taylor with mist in his eyes. It felt like we were the only two people on the planet. It was so real.
