Glen Oaks Big Sur

Timeless Elopement Film in the Redwoods of Big Sur | Mary Katherine + Price

Sun-kissed redwoods bear witness to a tale of love as old as the trees themselves. A memory etched forever amidst the ancient Big Sur forest. 🌲 🫢


There is something innately magical about the ancient redwoods of Big Sur - they stand tall and proud, their bark kissed by the sun and their roots deeply entwined with the earth. They've witnessed centuries pass by, bearing silent testimony to countless stories, and on this special day, they bore witness to a tale of love as timeless as the trees themselves.

This remarkable couple chose to embark on their new journey together amidst these centuries-old redwoods, basking in the soft, radiant glow of the Californian sun. A fitting start for a love story that promised to be as enduring and resilient as the forest itself.

Their story serves as a beautiful reminder that love, much like the redwoods, stands strong and tall, radiating warmth and life. This sun-kissed elopement in the redwoods of Big Sur is a testament to their everlasting love story, a tale that, like the forest, will continue to grow, thrive, and stand the test of time.

Rain-Soaked Redwood Elopement Film | Sara + Elliot

β€œLove shines brighter than any storm β˜”οΈπŸŒ² This couple braved the elements and said their vows in the stunning redwoods of Big Sur, surrounded by misty rain and the natural beauty of the forest. It was an affirmation not only of their love but also their willingness to embrace life, with all its unpredictability.

The day was a palette of overcast skies and cascading droplets, creating an ethereal stage for their nuptials. The towering redwoods stood as silent, stoic witnesses to their love story, while the rain-drenched surroundings added a touch of raw, elemental beauty. The typical sunny weather that Big Sur is renowned for gave way to a more dramatic, atmospheric setting - which only served to amplify the emotion and romance of their elopement.

Their story is a resounding reminder that love is not just about the sunny days but also the rainy ones. It’s about standing strong in the face of life’s storms and finding beauty and joy in those moments. The couple’s Big Sur elopement film beautifully encapsulates this message, painting a vivid picture of an unforgettable day where love was celebrated in its purest, most powerful form.

Elopement Film | Andrea + Raul at Glen Oaks, Big Sur, CA

It was so sweet to be a part of this wedding, and all the others, that happened during 2020 at a time when film became more valuable to almost everyone. It was an honor to capture these more intimate gatherings so couples could share them with all the loved ones who couldn't make it, and I'm excited for the weddings this year & getting to film couples who waited to throw a party in 2021 πŸŽ‰

Airy Big Sur Redwood Forest Elopement at Glen Oaks Big Sur, Big Sur, CA

This airy Big Sur Elopement started nestled among the giant redwoods where Brian + Maricela shared heartfelt personal vows with the sun streaming in through the branches, and ended along the epic sprawling Big Sur cliffs as they watched the sun go down over the crashing waves below. One of my favorite moments of the day was not actually at either of these locations, but after our beach excursion as we walked back to our cars in the parking lot, Brian knelt down and gently cleaned Maricela’s sandy feet before she put her shoes back on. His servant heart was so sweet and sincere, and it was a great picture of their relationship.

"I truly believe you were the answer to my many prayers. I love you with everything I have, and I promise to never let you doubt that I do. You believe in me and have shown me a love I don't even deserve. You will always be the very best part of my day. I am yours and you are mine, and of that I am certain."

Elopement Film | Lewis + Jessica at Post Ranch Inn, Big Sur, CA

Big Sur elopements will never get old, and there's almost no better place to elope than Post Ranch Inn. Lewis recited an old Scottish love song dated back to the early 1800s for Jessica in front of a bed of flowers in the woods for their intimate ceremony among the giant redwoods. If you know how to read old Irish text, here's an excerpt from what he said: "Let love sparkle In her e'e, Let her love nae man but me: That's the toeher-gude I prize; There the lover's treasure lies." 🌲: @postranchinn πŸ“·: @hellobrandonscott
