Working with Stacey and Barry was so fun! They loved the natural landscaping of the Four Seasons Biltmore in Santa Barbara, California. It was great to have the opportunity once again to work with the fabulous R. Jack Balthazar. They wanted to keep their ceremony very simple. The element of surprise was to be found at La Pacifica Ballroom. They wanted a very non-traditional wedding reception. Almost all of the seating was lounge style, with a variety of couches, chairs, ottomans and fire pits.

The Champagne Divas were stationed on the patio to serve champagne for the guests as they arrived at the cocktail reception. Continuing with the non-traditional style, all of the food service was set at a variety of stations inside the ballroom and on the terrace. And, each was paired with a signature cocktail! It is very trendy to have a signature cocktail at a reception, but we like taking things to the next level!

Our clients love to dance and love the hit show Dancing With the Stars. We brought in two professional dancers to lead off each of the dance sets with Rick Cowling and his band from West Coast Music! The reception was exactly what the clients wanted. A night filled with dancing, sharing tapas and cocktails, good friends and good times! We love what we do! Thank you Joe Buissink for your beautiful photography!
