Malibu Hike to Picnic Elopement

While pictures of beautiful beaches and ocean front mansions may flood your mind when you think of Malibu (thanks, Hollywood!), there is plenty of nature to explore off the sand. The Santa Monica Mountains have lots of flat and mountainous trails and are a huge part of Malibu. They can create a stunning backdrop and offer views of layers of mountains, view of the Pacific, and wildflowers in the Spring. Check out Christine and Julien’s picnic hillside elopement photos below.
