From the Photographer... It didn't take long after Heather and Peter met to fall in love. They both knew right away they had found the one they were meant to be with. After a year of many exciting adventures together, they took a trip to Big Sur & Carmel where Peter popped the question! The rest was history and the wedding planning quickly begun. They knew they wanted to get married in Santa Barbara (one of their favorite getaway spots) which would also be a wonderful holiday destination for their families traveling from New York and the Mid-West in the late fall. They had originally thought about a vineyard wedding but the moment they walked into El Encanto, they knew it was the place for them. It was the perfect balance of romance and elegance that they wanted for their wedding day. After that decision was made, they spent much time picking out the perfect designs, colors and various wedding details, but the most incredible part of the day had nothing to do with any of that- it was saying their vows and relishing in the moment they became husband & wife. The day was filled with so much love and many, many happy tears. A perfect Thanksgiving weekend to celebrate how truly grateful they are for one another!
