Amy & Jeff’s Malibu Family Elopement at Deer Creek Ridge

Malibu, Malibu Wedding, MIcro Wedding

Jeff and Amy had a lovely stress free intimate wedding day with just their parents and siblings. They got ready at an air bnb in the morning in Marina Del Rey, and then had a their ceremony at St. Monica’s catholic church in the afternoon in Santa Monica. We then drove to Deer Creek Ridge for golden hour for their creative portrait session and catered dinner for their family in the evening. Everyone enjoyed relaxing by the pool and the stunning views as the sun set over the stunning landscape. They hosted their dinner on the grand porch and gave toasts as they cut their cake. It was such a dreamy day as I got to know the whole family and celebrated along with them!
