Brookings Oregon Coast Elopement
Brookings Oregon Coast Elopement
This gorgeous Oregon Coast elopement was one of my first for the 2023 season and it was the perfect way to get my PNW elopement season started! C & S started their elopement at a gorgeous airbnb overlooking the coast! They even had a private pathway down to the beach below the airbnb. They decided to get ready together, which is always a fun way to do it, when you’re having a “just us” elopement. After getting ready we went to a beautiful Redwood forest trail that these two have hiked before! Actually every location that we went to was a spot that C & S visited on the trip they decided they wanted to get married on! They actually said “what if we explored that Redwoods trail and then got married at the coast on this rock?” before they were even engaged! And they did exactly that! Most redwoods trails are actually in California, but this one is actually still in Oregon, so it was nice to have to travel as far. It also happens to be way less “known” and popular, so we only saw one other car there! They practically had the entire place to themselves! To add to our luck, there was a slight drizzle when we first arrived, but by the time we started hiking, the rain stopped! The overcast weather made for beautiful light in the forest too. It was truly the perfect conditions.
Oregon Coast Elopement Ceremony
After exploring the forest, it was time to head for the coast and their elopement ceremony! There was a massive swell in the forecast so we weren’t sure if we would be able to get down to the actual beach for their ceremony location, but we ended up being able to! There were so many things that we knew might go wrong with weather (like lightening and wind warnings) but we completely lucked out in every way. After their gorgeous self-led ceremony C & S headed back to their airbnb to pick up their sabers to saber their champagne! C & S are both very knowledgable about wine (hence having sabers), and it was so fun to learn about the whole saber process!
A dreamy end to this incredible day
After the beach, they ended their incredible day with a hot tub sesh overlooking the ocean. It truly doesn’t get better than that! I truly had the best day with these two and it reminded me of why I love this job so much! Thank you to C & S for trusting me with your day.
