Design / Vibe / Vision
The design inspiration for our wedding was classic Southern. The florals were whimsical & elegant in shades of cream, green & blush.
Proposal Story
Maurice proposed in Santa Barbara, the place where Carolyn & Maurice first fell in love. He popped the question at the Ritz Carlton Bacara on the cliffside. Although it was smoky due to the wildfires, it was still perfect!
