Santa Barbara Beach Chic

As a wedding planner, these are the kinds of clients that we live for. Carolyn and Dan were a dream to work with and their pictures say it all! They were the most adorable couple and they had SO MUCH FUN on their wedding day! Carolyn wanted her wedding day to reflect the beach feel of Santa Barbara but not to have a cheesy stereotypical "beachy flare" She chose a fabulous oceanfront location of the Four Seasons Santa Barbara, and allowed me to take control of the decor! I worked alongside with Camilla Svensson Burns who provided the fabulous floral arrangements to achieve this light and airy look in the La Pacifica Ballroom. BB Photography always does an amazing job capturing our clients and their joy really shows throughout all of his images.

West Coast Music packed the dance floor all night- and when the father of the bride couldn't find space to dance there, he made his own dance floor between the tables!!

We Are Thrilled to Share...

I've just agreed to author a chapter of the Pananche coffee-table book Southern California Weddings. Each chapter will introduce a destination's most interesting hotels and venues as well as offer insight on the best in local catering, floral design, entertainment, photography, and other areas of specialty. My chapter of course will be the fabulous Santa Barbara! I am very excited to have the opportunity to share weddings we've created in this unique gorgeous destination and highlight some of the most amazing local resources which help make this happen. It's going to be an absolutely invaluable resource for brides and anyone who wants to learn about Southern California's vibrant special events scene.
