Josh and Mary had stunning farm wedding in Halfmoon Bay, CA that made us want to curl up under the stars and dream of love. Their goals? Rustic, outdoors, and super comfortable and fun. Did they succeed? You betcha. Let's hear from Mary herself on how they made their chill farm wedding happen…

My husband and I love hiking and exploring the great outdoors, so we knew that our special day had to be al fresco. We also wanted it to be rustic and comfortable. Similarly, our love of the outdoors go hand-in-hand with the rustic theme and the idea of “slow living.” This concept has always captivated us because it represents taking the time to enjoy the moment we are in and taking joy in simple pleasures, something we tend to forget in our day-to-day lives.

We were looking for a laid-back, comfortable, and fun atmosphere for all, so you can imagine that we were breath taken when we discovered Long Branch Saloon and Farms in Half Moon Bay. From the tall trees that surrounded the farm, to the Old Western town, sling-shots, and outdoor mini-golf (just to name a few), the essence of the venue embodied everything we wanted. With the help of our planner, Simply Elegant Weddings & Events, along with the rest of our vendors, our three fundamental concepts became a reality.
