COVID elopements... they can actually be full of magic! Santa Barbara intimate elopement.

What are COVID weddings/COVID elopements looking like these days? Well, actually pretty romantic and magical, I’d say!!!

This incredible, first responder, LA couple couldn’t have been more deserving of a dreamy wedding day. L + N, with their precious 5 year old daughter, decided to elope in Santa Barbara and it turned out to be the dreamiest, most intimate and beautiful day.

I showed up decked out in my PPE and ready to turn this sweet nurse into the boho bridal vision of her dreams! We went with a dramatic makeup look, all emphasis on the eye shadow and lashes, and kept the skin glowing and radiant with airbrush foundation. L’s hair was already so long and gorgeous. We created a boho, loose, side updo incorporating romantic twists, dutch braids, and fishtail braids! Her daughter had braids incorporated into her gorgeous little updo too. Adding flowers into their styles tied everything together - obsessed with their mother/daughter elopement looks. SO CUTE.

Santa Barbara has the most beautiful City Hall, with gorgeous grounds for photos! An absolutely beautiful spot for elopements, especially in the midst of COVID and smaller micro-weddings!
