Wintertime has never looked so good! Today’s featured couple held their glamorous wedding just a week away from Christmas with help from wedding coordinator Events by Maxi Castillo—however, in Santa Barbara every day feels like summer and the sun shone throughout the entire day. Michelle Ramirez took photos as both the bride and groom prepared for the day alongside a playful group of both bridesmaids and groomsmen. Excitement showed on all the ladies’ faces as the bride slipped on her show-stopping lace mermaid-style gown, which featured a classic long train. Her groom dressed in a black tuxedo and bowtie, and groomsmen added a dash of color with mauve neckties and various colored socks.

The couple’s choice of ceremony venue was perfectly fitting. The Old Mission Santa Barbara provided for amazing photos both on the inside during the traditional ceremony and on the outside afterwards. The building’s white brick architecture and pink design details even matched with the couple’s color theme and the floral arrangements provided by Tangled Lotus.

At the commencement of post-ceremony photos, the party moved over to the Rosewood Miramar Hotel for a luxurious evening. Town and Country Event Rentals helped to decorate the venue’s Chandelier Ballroom, and Bella Vista Designs provided the mood lighting. At the end of the night, music from the Lucky Devils Band filled the ballroom, and the bride and groom shared multiple dances with their guests on the black and white checkered dance floor.
