Real Weddings

Katie and Joey’s intimate Santa Barbara Vineyard Wedding unfolds as a heartwarming tale set against the enchanting backdrop of Santa Barbara wine country. As their dedicated wedding planner, I had the pleasure of transforming their dream day into a reality at the picturesque Demetria Estate. Join us as we embark on a magical journey through their romantic celebration!

Meet the Couple

Katie and Joey’s love story began in a serendipitous encounter at a university bar. Katie, a spirited undergrad, and Joey, a diligent law school student, crossed paths, and sparks flew. To set the scene: Katie was dressed in a pineapple costume, making it a night they would never forget. Fast forward to their proposal story, and it’s nothing short of a fairytale. Joey whisked Katie away to a picturesque vineyard, surrounded by their closest friends. Under the golden sun, he popped the question, and to make the day even more magical, he had arranged a delightful dinner at one of Katie’s favorite restaurants, joined by their parents and friends. Ah, love!

As for the color palette, warm neutrals and hints of rust stole the show, embracing the earthy, autumnal vibes that Katie and Joey adore. The colors beautifully highlighted the changing leaves and added to the overall romantic feel.

Unique Touches

While there were countless special moments throughout the day, one that stands out is how I personally went in search of fresh herbs to enhance the buffet table’s aroma and appeal. It’s those little touches that make a big difference in creating a truly unforgettable wedding experience.

Client Testimonial

We could not have asked for a better experience! Candice was an absolute joy to work with and extremely easy to contact. She was with us every step of the way from the first conversation to choosing vendors to making sure everything was set up correctly the day of! We are from out of state and had no knowledge of what vendors to use. Candice was extremely helpful with providing us with multiple options and making sure each vendor was on top of everything. We would recommend her to anyone looking to have a California wedding, but we would especially recommend her to those who are out of state or not familiar with the area.
