Intimate Courthouse Micro Wedding with a Late Night Dip in the Pool

Get lost with us in this intimate micro wedding held in the awe-inspiring Sunken Gardens of the Santa Barbara Courthouse. Experienced wedding photographer Taylor Stuck was tasked with capturing the day and made sure not to miss the details including the couple’s simple and modern wedding invitations, the blush and white florals from Fleur De Rye, and the bride’s unique gown with intricate lace detailing at the bottom from Brides for a Cause.

At the ceremony, the pair read each other personal vows and the groom even serenaded his bride on the guitar as a sweet surprise. Tears of joy were abundant during the event, making the love shared between the couple and also among their small group of guests very evident. Following the pronouncement, plenty of photos were taken around the courthouse grounds before the couple and their guests headed to a nearby private estate for their reception.

At the private property, long wooden tables were set up for a meal from Delgado's Mexican Restaurant with tall candlesticks and low floral arrangements. Guests and the couple additionally dined underneath a white arbor decorated with both greenery and string lights for a magical feel as the sun went down. For an extra special ending to the night the couple alongside their guests even took a leap of faith into the property’s pool!
