Santa Barbara Fiesta Wedding

You say "bright, bold, and fun"? We say "always, yes, and please!" But there was nothing on this day more festive than the glowing smiles of the bride and groom. From ear to ear, we say say you're never fully dressed without one. Yes, thank you "Annie." Jen & Stephen were simply charming. They never wanted to take their eyes off each other on their sunshiny day. Jen loves her teal blues, from her getting ready photos to her bridesmaids dresses. We lead the bridal party down the aisle with paper lanterns in all shades. Guests were even graced with matching parasols to take shade. With maracas in hand, the guests cheered the new couple as they made their way from the multi-color ribbon archway.

From ceremony at the magnificent Santa Barbara Courthouse to the reception at El Paseo Restaurant, Jen & Stephen lead their guests, complete with mariachi band, in grand parade. A "Just-Married" sign let any passerby note that these people were ready to party. Remember Jen's totally-teal theme? You can even bet her cake shimmered with that delicious azure tone. Not only that, but we made sure delicate lanterns and napkins lined the banquet tables in just that shade. Pops of orange and yellow escort cards matched the summery orange and pink florals--bouquets and centerpieces. Out fabulous couple were carried away into a night of festivities to the sound of maracas and under a canopy of twinkle lights.
