Beautiful Filoli Elopement Inspiration
Olivia & Derek
Like many couples who planned weddings in 2020, Olivia and Derek opted to postpone their larger celebration and hold a smaller, intimate ceremony at The High Place, a beautiful private garden at Filoli. They could not have picked a more idyllic spot for this ultra-romantic gathering!
Picturesque Filoli is well known for its elegance and sprawling grandeur. It’s perfect for couples who don’t want to sacrifice luxury and opulence for a smaller, intimate celebration, especially while the social distancing guidelines are still in place.
The lush fusion of flowers that bloom all year around, ornamental garden rooms, and ephemeral charm create a real-life fairy tale. Nestled into emerald acres and enchanted gardens, the regal House is a true architectural masterpiece. Its historic charm lent an elegant, vintage feel to Olivia and Derek’s photos session. Due to the wildfires north and south of the venue, the atmosphere had a smoky quality that actually worked in our favor. Natural light shone through the fog and softened the portraits, adding whimsy to elegance.
Filoli is one of the most sought-after wedding venues in the area. If you’re thinking of having your own Filoli wedding or engagement photos, take a stroll through Olivia and Derek’s collection.
