Sweet gardens, tiny toads, and lily pads, oh my! A summer evening wedding in the charming gardens of The Belmond El Encanto had us all a-twitter for dear Candace & John.
In mermaid-style gown and rose buds in hand, this vision glided down the brick inlay to her prince. A center pond won't stop us from creating an aisle! Candace came down the left side of the pond, and exited a wife on the right. Chairs tilted slightly diagonal allowed for a perfect view from any seat.

As the vibrant Santa Barbara sun faded into the horizon, the party transitioned downstairs in a ballroom full to the brim with chandelier-pedestal rose centerpieces and garden pink petals. We especially enjoyed the clever choice of retro California city "table numbers" and the coloring books for the young guests. We couldn't get enough of this pair--especially their superb dance moves! Move aside dancers! These stars have talent.
Congratulations, Candace & John!
