Today is National Zoo Lovers Day - a day dedicated to supporting local zoos and appreciating the wild and majestic animals that reside there. In honor of the day, we have such a fun Santa Barbara Zoo wedding to share with you. This couple really embraced zoo life from details like a parrot print found hidden in the groom's suit jacket liner, to the exotic florals by Ella & Louie, and a wedding cake by Chooket with a flamingo topper. Everything screamed "Wedding at the Zoo!" and we love that!

The couple also made sure to mix in some tropical elements and utilized a unique geometric shaped backdrop for their ceremony. The day was filled with every color of the rainbow and the couple's colorful personalities also came out as they interacted with the zoo animals including a giraffe and adorable penguin.

Angie Chaves with Rincon Events helped plan this fantastic day and you can tell from these images by Laura Ford Photos that the newlyweds and their guests had a day they will never forget!
