This resort hotel is the perfect place to get ready on your wedding morning. The views are stunning and the suites offer plenty of room for you and your bridal party to get ready!
Wedding Ceremony At Dos Pueblos Orchid Farm
This wedding ceremony was simply beautiful and full of celebration. The location on the property for wedding ceremonies is one of the best I have ever seen! The views are absolutely breathtaking. The groom was driven out first in a 1938 Rolls Royce Wraith, he was accompanied by some of his best friends and the ultimate hype team! The bride was escorted to the ceremony by her father, her gown literally sparkled in the sunlight and she radiated elegance and beauty. The couple legally wed under Islamic law during their Nikah ceremony, from start to finish it was beautiful!
The Bride and Groom Photos
If there’s one wedding tip I hope all couples incorporate into their wedding day, it’s to leave enough time to take bride and groom photos! You don’t want to rush through this part of the day. I will repeat this until I’m blue in the face: make sure to allocate time for yourself. Wedding days go by fast, and sometimes couples spend more time with their vendors and guests than their partners. I don’t think this is how it should be! I’m a firm believer in setting time aside during your wedding day to be in the moment together, just you two, and allowing time to capture that newlywed bliss! These newlyweds did just that, and the photos to prove it are out of this world!
The Details
Allow me to express just how awe-inspiring these wedding details were; when I tell you, I mean it! Transitioning from the enchanting violinist during cocktail hour to the meticulous choice of fabric in the stationary and down to the impeccably selected lighting fixtures, everything seamlessly flowed together. Moreover, all the guests showed up dressed their best, adding to the grandeur of an exquisite evening dedicated to celebrating love.
The Dos Pueblos Orchid Farm Venue
Dos Pueblos Orchid Farm is a gorgeous wedding venue. As mentioned previously, the ceremony location is incredible and overlooks the Pacific Ocean. The cocktail and reception space is a greenhouse that allows for endless options in decor. All the vendors that came together to give this space even more life did an incredible job. Below, you will see just how magical the space was during the day and under the stars and sparkling lights!
The Vendors
I loved being included in this beautiful Santa Barbara wedding! The vendor team that made this vision a reality were incredible to work with, and I would recommend them to any bride and groom.
