K: Wedding Wednesdays (girly squeee!)

Since we’re all girls here, or most of us reading this are (hey boys!), we thought it’d be fun to post a wedding that we really liked or thought was interesting every week. This week we’re shamelessly promoting Anna’s wedding in Santa Barbara. The ceremony took place at the Santa Barbara Courthouse (it’s free!) and the reception was at the Four Seasons Biltmore.

In order to save money, she kept the wedding small (about 40 people). Her wedding dress(es) were floor samples. She designed and printed the invitations herself, ordered wholesale flowers and potted plants for the flowers, and had her little sister (that’s me!) bake and ice 40 cupcakes to give as favors There was a fun Polaroid station at the cocktail hour too that her wonderful friends helped man.

It turned out to be a wonderful and personal day and we hope that others can see that having a beautiful wedding doesn’t have to be crazy expensive. Adding personal details will make both you and your guests feel special, as well as make your wedding memorable! Check out some pictures that the wonderful Linda Chaja took.
