There's something about starting at Our Lady of Mount Carmel that sets the tone for the entire day. That classic Montecito church with its Spanish architecture and those bells that echo through the hills - it's the kind of ceremony spot that makes everyone sit up a little straighter.

Then the magic move to the Montecito Club. If you know, you know. This place is old-school California elegance - manicured gardens, that sprawling lawn with mountain views, and the kind of privacy that lets everyone really let loose once the party starts.

The contrast is what makes it perfect. From the sacred moments at Mount Carmel - all tradition and happy tears and that gorgeous light streaming through stained glass - to the celebration under the stars at the club where bow ties come undone and grandma hits the dance floor.

It's Montecito at its finest. Where old California tradition meets modern celebration, and somehow everyone from the youngest cousin to the oldest family friend finds their moment. The kind of wedding that feels both timeless and completely in the moment.
