Weddings in the Redwoods
With three Redwood National Parks near us, your choices are endless for exchanging vows under some of the tallest trees in the world. Popular locations include Stout Grove, Grove of Titans and more. We have many redwood groves on private property which can be easier for permitting. Redwood forests in California State Parks like Walker Road or Organ Donor’s Grove can accommodate larger groups.
Locations we love:
Jedediah Smith Redwoods State & National Park

Permits are required by Redwood National Parks or our local California State Parks. Del Norte County permits and Crescent City permits are required for beaches and parks within the city or county limits. We recommend starting the process early.
