Under the golden sun of a perfect summer day in Montecito, Sharon and Andrew stood hand in hand in the world-famous Madame Ganna Walska Lotusland gardens.
Their travels had brought them many times to Santa Barbara where they eventually found the perfect place to be married, and surrounded by the lush beauty of Lotusland, their love was ready to be celebrated. It felt as though the universe had conspired to bring them together at one of the world’s most glorious places.
The exquisite gardens, a symphony of exotic plants and serene lily ponds, provided the perfect backdrop for their wedding. As they exchanged vows beneath a canopy of towering palm trees, it seemed like the clear water of the lily ponds shimmered.
After those vows that promised deep commitment, accented by their delightful humor, the couple moved through the gardens, their faces glowing with happiness. The scent of blooming flowers filled the air, dragonflies hovered over the ponds — every single moment was perfect. Photos: @carlyotnessphoto

We at Santa Barbara Classic weddings adore a true love story and strive to make the ceremony as light-hearted and happy as possible. We were so glad to receive these comments of appreciation: “We couldn't be happier with our ceremony and how easy it was to be ourselves with you …. that made it that much more memorable than we could ever have imagined. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
