From the bride, Rachael:

Joe and I met a random Thursday afternoon at our apartment’s pool- after a few hours of talking he asked me for my number and that Saturday we went on our first date!

The wedding was a perfect mix of romantic Santa Barbara meets ethereal garden. I loved that each space shined on its own but had a cohesive theme. I loved walking into the reception space and feeling like we were in a secret garden with the most beautiful hanging florals. I loved how Lindsay and Kathryn made a moment in every space from the escort wall to the martini bar no detail was ignored!

The wedding was an absolute dream come true! I was so happy and full of joy the entire day! I loved the florals- Amy did a fantastic job with creating stunning floral arrangements using over 3,000 roses and making each arrangement look like an art piece. The band was out of this world! I don’t think Joe or I left the dance floor all night! Except to refresh our drinks which many guests said were the best espresso martinis they have ever had!

If I could relive that day I would 10x over Mother Nature even blessed us with a hurricane hitting just 12 hours later- something that hasn’t happened in Santa Barbara in over 60 years! The Bliss team gave me the best gift as a bride- they handled everything and allowed me to not worry about a thing all day!
