If you’re dreaming of a wedding that’s intimate, beautiful, and deeply personal, a micro wedding or elopement might be perfect for you. At Dawn Ranch, located in Guerneville, California, we specialize in hosting small weddings that feel unforgettable. Our 22-acre property along the Russian River offers breathtaking ceremony spots, cozy accommodations, and a serene setting surrounded by towering redwoods — the perfect backdrop for saying “I do.”
What Is a Micro Wedding or Elopement?
A micro wedding is a smaller-scale celebration — usually under 50 guests — that includes all the meaningful details of a traditional wedding but with a more personal, relaxed feel. An elopement is even more intimate, sometimes just the couple (and maybe a few witnesses). Whether you envision a tiny guest list or just the two of you, Dawn Ranch is one of Northern California’s most picturesque micro wedding venues.
