A BEAUTIFUL SUMMER DAY IN THE HISTORIC SANTA BARBARA COURTHOUSE GARDENS
Some weddings feel like they’re plucked straight out of a love story—and this one was just that!
On a picture-perfect day in Santa Barbara, surrounded by sunshine and smiles, this couple invited their favorite people to witness a ceremony that was as warm and effortless as their love. They chose the enchanting gardens of the renowned SANTA BARBARA COURTHOUSE—a particularly secluded location that doesn’t require a fee or a reservation, making it one of SANTA BARBARA CLASSIC WEDDING’s best-kept secrets for a truly stress-free celebration.
As she walked up the winding pathway, every head turned and every heart swelled. She was stunning—radiant in a way that made even the flowers seem to lean in closer. Their guests couldn’t stop smiling (and neither could we at @Santa Barbara Classic Weddings).
After their heartfelt vows, the marriage license was signed by their witnesses - sisters, sealing the moment with even more joy. Then they strolled the gardens for photos captured so beautifully by Cherry Thomas—images that reflect all the laughter, tears, and quiet glances they shared. @bycherryphotography
But their fairytale didn’t end there. Hand in hand, they left for their next chapter: a romantic stay at the San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, often called one of the most romantic hotels in the world. @sanysidroranch
It was a day full of love, simplicity, and meaning—proof that the most beautiful weddings don’t require grandeur, only the right person by your side and your favorite people close by.
A message from the bride after the wedding: “AWWWWWWW thank you so much Patrice! You are too sweet! We can't thank you enough for helping make our day so special! It was absolutely amazing and perfect! Could feel all the love! It was magical! Thank you so much again, you were amazing!!”
