Hug Point Elopement, Oregon

A Moody Elopement at Hug Point Beach, Oregon

Hug Point is an incredible place on the Oregon coast for an elopement. With a huge beach, incredible rock formations, caves formed by the tides, a wide waterfall into the ocean and an old-growth forests surrounding the beach, you get a little bit of everything all in one place.
