Serena + Austin's Backyard Wedding in Mendocino, California

Meet the Couple

Serena + Austin had one of the dreamiest tiny backyard weddings we have EVER seen. Although they don’t live in Mendocino anymore, it’s a place they love (and where Serena’s aunt has a beautiful home) and we couldn’t help but fall in love with the epic cliffs, beautiful coastline, and of course these two and their sweet families. They opted to celebrate with just eleven guests, cutting out all the pomp and circumstance of larger weddings, and they shared the most beautiful, intimate vows. It was an incredibly simple, heartfelt wedding.

Special details include their homemade chuppah, Serena’s navy blue embroidered wedding gown with a sheer skirt over SHORTS (Just….prepare yourselves), and just the fact that they dedicated a full hour to driving along the coast and stopping for photos; it was a photographer’s dream.
