Couple eloping at Santa Barbara City College

We want to start with a heartfelt thank you to every incredible couple who entered our Santa Barbara Wedding Style elopement giveaway. Reading your stories, dreams, and reasons for saying “yes” reminded us why we love what we do—and today, we’re so excited to celebrate the couple who won.

Meet Asia and Diego, our giveaway winners, who hosted an intimate and deeply meaningful November elopement at Santa Barbara City College’s Winslow Maxwell Overlook. Captured beautifully by Moments by Frank, the ceremony unfolded beneath a stunning acrylic arch by Backdrop Boutiques. Gorgeous white floral arrangements came from PacWest Blooms and the gentle sounds of harpist Jan Walters floated through the air, adding an elegant, unexpected layer of magic to the experience.

From the bride:

Diego and I absolutely loved everything—it was more than we could have ever dreamed of. What stood out most was connecting with you, Frank, and Susie. Your passion truly shows in what you do. Being able to share our story with you and watching you bring it to life during the ceremony was incredibly beautiful.

Walking up to the venue and seeing the arch surrounded by florals felt unreal—it literally took my breath away. Diego and I had never taken professional photos before, and not only was it so much fun, I’m still in awe of how they turned out. Frank made everything feel light and enjoyable, allowing us to stay present, have fun, and still capture the most meaningful moments.

Everything felt unreal. Everyone I love was there, and it meant so much to be surrounded by all of our grandparents. The harp music in the background was such a graceful, beautiful touch—something I never would have thought of in a million years.

I am beyond grateful that businesses—especially local businesses—offer giveaways like this. It allows people to experience moments they might not otherwise have the opportunity to. Thank you all. You touched me in ways I wasn’t expecting. It was an honor to meet you and work through the details together to create such a special day. I will never stop talking about this. I feel truly blessed and thankful to have won this incredibly thoughtful giveaway.

Congratulations again to Asia and Diego—your love, gratitude, and joy are exactly why we do this!
