We can’t get enough of this violet and floral-filled Santa Barbara wedding with its many details pieced together by the talented full-service wedding planner Tonya Szele Events. The couple made use of multiple Santa Barbara venues with gorgeous ocean views. Plus, rentals from Town and Country, Bright Event Rentals, and Bella Vista Designs helped to turn the reception into a white and lush green oasis. As a charming touch the couple hosted a brunch the morning after their wedding at the Hilton Beachfront Resort featuring a pink wall filled with donuts from Eller’s which stole the show.

From Tonya Szele Events:

For Ali and Chris' wedding it was all about lush florals and entertaining their guests for this Santa Barbara destination wedding. To kick the celebration off, the couple chose SB Wine Collective to host their colorful welcome dinner. 

For the wedding day the classic Coral Casino at the Four Seasons was chosen to host their wedding day. A lush garden themed ruled the design, with huge floral arches decorating the entrance and ceremony spot and even more flowers lined the walkway all by Anna LePley Taylor. Ali chose a timeless Oscar de la Renta dress with feminine lace and tulle details. For portraits, the couple went to the iconic Butterfly Beach where Christian Oth Studio captured the happy couple. 

Cocktails and dinner were held in the Coral Casino ballroom and featured a raw bar and stunning ice sculpture by Ice Art LA. For dinner, a big-X marked the spot where the party would be sure to kick off. Long tables were set with lush floral arrangements featuring Distant Drum roses. All in all, it felt like a lush garden, brought indoors. 

After the wedding day, the party didn't stop, and the couple chose to hosting a going away brunch at the Hilton Beachfront Resort. There, the couple's favorite food, donuts, served as both breakfast and decor. With three back to back events, we were a wee bit tired Sunday, but very pleased with the results.
