Welcome to an easy breezy summer soiree designed by Events by Fran and hosted by Santa Barbara Wedding Style. The styled event and showcase was an amalgamation of the passion and extensive expertise Santa Barbara’s wedding vendors have to offer. Held in the grounds of Summerland, Alyssa Lizarraga captured the neutral color palette, ceremony overlooking the deep blue waters, and a carefully curated cocktail hour and reception. Amigo Party Rentals assisted with the setup and collaborated with Tangled Lotus to create tablescapes of white and green floral centerpieces paired with ribbed glassware and cream candlesticks.

On the culinary side, the food displays were a work of art in and of themselves. Petal & Rind pieced together a colorful charcuterie board while Get Shucked Santa Barbara pulled in the city’s seafood roots with fresh oysters and shrimp. Omni Catering covered the main meal, and for dessert, an array of cupcakes and sweets from Lindsay’s Little Bakery.

From Events by Fran

My passion was to bring exclusively invited event and wedding professionals together to showcase a new venue in Summerland and its potential to share to other vendors and clients how an intimate wedding, summer welcome soiree party or any other special occasion can be experienced overlooking the ocean. My vision was a modern chic summer soiree at the coastal beach with neutral and white palette along with bright lime green tones.
