Eclectic Oak Grove Wedding Ceremony with a Stella Mare's Reception
In the oak grove at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History, this sweet couple exchanged vows in front of family and friends. The brides both donned their dream wedding dress - one in an elegant satin a-line gown and the other in a flowy, sheer column dress. Both also carried multi-colored bridal bouquets with succulents from La Fleur de Jour.
The ceremony took place deep in the grove surrounded by enchanting trees sprawling out above. Vintage chairs from Avenue Twelve were each unique and unlike the next, creating an eclectic vibe and overhead, a cluster of lanterns filled with flowers marked the ceremony spot. Sweet ceremony music played as both brides made their way down the aisle following two flower girls spreading petals and dressed in flower crowns.
Afterward, the couple hosted a casual dinner in the greenhouse at Santa Barbara’s Stella Mare's Bistro. Special thanks to Santa Barbara wedding photographer Kiel Rucker for sharing this lovely wedding!
