From the Photographer… When Wellesley and Harvard collide, you get a quintessentially classic Ivy League love story. Morgan and Matt met while attending their Alma Maters, at an evening gathering on campus, and have been inseparable ever since. They Wed at the beautiful Our Lady of Mount Carmel with a traditional Catholic Ceremony and walked out to a sea waving streamers from Family & Friends who rejoiced in their Union. Guests made their way to the nearby Santa Barbara Zoo, where they enjoyed a perfect California day, sipping on cocktails and noshing on delectables, all while little zoo animals roamed around for photo ops. The Reception was held in a beautiful white Tent on the grounds, with a neutral palette of Florals in whites, soft buttery yellows & greenery among clear table settings creating an airy and quietly elegant ambience. They danced the evening away with the usual Wedding merriment, as the sun set and the tent glowed from afar, with the sound of laughter and clinking glasses filling the warm California summer night.
