Planning to Elope
Couples who elope often do so because they want a small wedding. They want to keep things simple, intimate and trés romantique.
Mendocino Weddings offers a Small Weddings and Elopements package for weddings up to 20 people. We take care of all the organizational details for small weddings. You choose and reserve the B&B or Hotel, bring the marriage license, and we will do the rest. We offer many locations to choose from for the perfect ceremony.
A small earth-friendly wedding was the goal of this bride and groom. David and Lisa stayed at the Stanford Inn for the fabulous vegan fare. They chose a vegan cake from Melinda Ellis Cakes and
selected flowers grown locally by Susy Kitahara. The bride went to Mendocino Beauty where they offer all non-animal products; Amy Wall at MB is well-known for her natural Mendocino look.
They held their ceremony at The Overlook so that they could walk, forsaking motorized transporta
tion.
Mendocino is a great location for elopements all year ’round. In the winter there are cozy indoor settings in front of a fire, spring is delightful with gardens coming to life, summer vows on the
headlands or beach are idyllic and autumn on the coast is known for its exquisite weather.
Another couple eloped to the charming, little town of Elk on the coast south of Mendocino.
The vendors for this simple yet elegant wedding were: Cake by Jennifer Arana, flowers by Rosa at L&R Farms and photos by Cassandra Young Photography. The couple lodged and dined at the delightful Harbor House in Elk.
