Hi friend, thanks for being here. I'm Alicia,
WHAT IS AN ELOPEMENT?
Let’s break it down - traditional elopements might suggest a quick city hall wedding because you had to tie the knot. Or some might say it’s the more affordable quick easy way to go.
The thing is, eloping can be whatever you want it to be. It’s the opportunity to decide when, where + how you want it to all unfold.
How amazing would it be to celebrate your anniversary every year in the same location that you shared your intimate vows overlooking the endless ocean horizon?
Eloping is unique to you in a way that you will never forget how you felt in that season of your lives. Remember, this is YOUR day and it deserves to be celebrated.

APRIL & DAVID
I worked with Alicia on my elopement- I came to her somewhat last minute but she was a godsend! She helped me with the whole process - finding a location that fit exactly what I envisioned, the applications, the permitting, and everything. She was super helpful and easy going to work with, and she made me feel relaxed through what could've been a stressful process. On the day of she made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera, and the photos she took were even better than I imagined! Eloping in a national park - I really wanted the grandeur of the forest and the ocean to be captured and this girl really popped off we really couldn't be happier.

Absolutely. Elopements can be just the two of you or include a small group of your closest people. Many NorCal locations allow intimate gatherings — we just plan around guest limits and accessibility.
Spring and fall are ideal for fewer crowds and mild weather. Summer is perfect for Lake Tahoe elopements, while coastal spots like Big Sur are beautiful year-round. I help you choose a date based on weather, lighting, and privacy.
Most popular NorCal elopement locations require permits, especially state parks, beaches, and redwood groves. I help my couples navigate the entire permit process so you don’t have to stress about logistics — just show up and get married.
Northern California has everything — alpine views in Lake Tahoe, dramatic cliffs in Big Sur, and magical redwoods in places like Muir Woods and Humboldt County. Your ideal location depends on your vibe: adventurous mountain sunrise, coastal sunset, or intimate forest ceremony.
