Vanessa and Aaron

Nestled at the base of Mt Tamalpais and surrounded by redwood trees, Ralston White Retreat is a hidden gem of Mill Valley and the stunning backdrop for Vanessa and Aaron's wedding. With a heart-shaped lawn in the front, a spacious green lawn and a secret redwood grove with a pond, the venue is a dream for any wedding photographer. The ceremony took place in the woods in front of an ancient redwood tree, and the outdoor reception consisted of fresh made pizzas from a mobile brick oven. By choosing this location, Vanessa wanted to stay close to her roots and bring a strong Northern California vibe, both through the classic architecture of the venue and the majestic nature surrounding it.
