love in the sun, love in the fog

A dreamy wedding that seemed to magically materialize out of the haze. These two celebrated with their immediate families in Shelter Cove on a partly sunny and partly cloudy September day. 
 
After their cliffside ceremony, champagne, and pretty little appetizers we explored around the lighthouse and two beaches for couple's portraits. Then it was off to dinner, cake, and toasts with yet another postcard worthy view at a local inn. 
 
The celebration wound down at Gyppo Ale Mill where the couple and their families cuddled up by the warm fire with cold brews. This was the kind of day you want to wake up to over and over again.

lost coast, best coast

Shelter Cove is a hidden gem of a location for a wedding or an elopement in Southern Humboldt County which tends to enjoy more sunny days per year than the rest of our coastline.

The drive in is long and windy but incredibly scenic and worth doing at least once. For those who prefer, the town also has a one runway public airport that can be accessed by small to medium sized aircraft when the weather is cooperative.

There are so many lodging options for couples, their families, and guests. Ocean front inns, a variety of vacation rentals on the bluffs or in the woods, or even a tent somewhere on a black sand beach along the Lost Coast Hiking Trail for the more adventurous souls.

Visit the area and you might also decide that the lost coast is the best coast.
