DAVID & MARK AT THE SANTA BARBARA BOTANIC GARDENS AND BELMOND EL ENCANTO

It was such a thrill and an honor to be part of David and Mark’s microwedding earlier this year. I enjoyed spending time with them and helping them develop their wedding day design and visual elements, assisting with their vendor searches and advising on logistics and day of details. It was amazing to see it all come together and the absolute joy they expressed when they arrived and saw how beautiful it all looked.

The couple chose to have their destination wedding surrounded by their very close friends and family who came from near and far to celebrate this momentus occasion. Being outdoors in nature was very important David and Mark. After an extensive search they came to a decision and it was an easy one. They were instantly drawn to the beauty, exclusivity and natural landscapes at the Pritzlaf Conservatory at the Santa Barbara Botanic Gardens. The lush green gardens, native California plants, and mountain views made this the ideal location to say their I Do’s.

Following their nuptials the couple invited guests to join them for an intimate cocktail reception and dinner at the picturesque Belmond El Encanto where luxury fine dining and coastal views intersect. Jason Sulkin Music provided entertainment while guests were treated to cocktails and a 3 course meal while enjoying views of the Santa Barbara coastline. Photographer Kyle London captured these incredible moments throughout their day.

Thank you to the team that helped make this day so special for the happy couple!
