Dive into the timeless elegance of Alana and Mario’s Villa & Vine wedding, a celebration that seamlessly blended rich tradition with contemporary charm. Every detail, from the ornate chapel to the enchanting bistro lights, painted a picture of romance and joy.
Nestled in the heart of Santa Barbara, Villa & Vine provided the perfect backdrop for the celebration of this union. The ceremony took place in the gorgeous Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, adorned with rich wood and ornate gold details that exuded an old-world charm. The soft green leaves and delicate white blossoms of our floral designs added a touch of serenity, perfectly complementing the grandeur of the chapel.
In a whirl of whimsy, three classic trolleys whisked Alana, Mario, and their guests to the reception at Villa & Vine. But not before making a picturesque pitstop at the beach, where photographer Liz Banfield captured the couple in some breathtaking moments against the backdrop of the vast ocean and golden sands. These beachside photos, with the waves gently caressing the shore and the couple lost in each other's eyes, are sure to be treasured memories.
The reception at the Villa & Vine Wedding was laid out to be an inviting, dreamy space. Light, airy florals and details adorned the venue. The tables were set up reminiscent of one big family dinner, fostering a sense of togetherness. This setup created a warm yet elegant atmosphere, where every guest felt like an integral part of Alana and Mario's journey. This enchanting ambiance set the mood for the evening, as the newlyweds and their loved ones danced, laughed, and celebrated.
As the sun bid adieu, Alana and Mario said farewell under the twinkling lights of the Arlington Theatre, giving a fun, retro ending to a night that blended something old and something new into a dreamy, elegant, and fun celebration with loved ones.
Thank you Alana and Mario for letting us celebrate with you in your unforgettable Villa & Vine Wedding!
