Anthony and Cassie fell in love in Santa Barbara so it only seemed appropriate that they also tie the knot there as well. It was the perfect destination wedding, just far enough from home that the weekend was a vacation but still close enough that they could still use some of their favorite LA vendors. The Lion’s Club located just outside of Santa Barbara in the beautiful hills of Carpinteria served as their wedding and reception location. The lush grass fields of the Lion’s Park worked well for Anthony and Cassie’s classic out door ceremony, while the rustic interior of the club was warm and enviting for their fun sit down reception. The wedding party arrived a couple days early to make pretty DIY Martha Stewart pom poms and set up all the decorations Cassie had spent months hand making. On the day of the wedding Cassie and her bridesmaids were given access to a charming rustic bridal suite at the Lion’s Club equipped with a kitchen for their champaign and full length mirrors to properly get ready in front of. The sun came out burning away the costal fog and brought a light breeze with it. A perfect day for a perfect couple.
DIY chalk boards are so much fun. And I just love the old fashioned striped straws. The Gazebo in the park was perfect to keep the pre ceremony refreshments cool.
DIY paper tags as table cards. I thought it was so cute that Cassie found yellow pins to organize the place cards on cork board, that way the guests could easily pull theirs off.Recipe for a lasting relationship. Grab a colored pencil and write the love birds a bit of advice and place it in their recipe box.Gotta love the mini chalkboard table numbers in the floral arrangements.Cassie hand made all of the crochet floral decor.
The Martha Stewart DIY pom poms are so simple yet add an elegant touch to the room.The burlap Just Married sign on the head table was one of my favorite decorations.
