Beautiful Avila Beach Golf Resort Wedding

September was another busy wedding month for many of us CCWP vendors.  It's funny how at the beginning of the year we are all chomping at the bits to get into wedding season and then right around this time of the year we all find ourselves exhausted and ready for the year to be over.  Despite the hustle and bustle of being mid season, this was not the case for us who had the privilege of being apart of Bryan and Connie Kahanu's Wedding at the beautiful Avila Beach Golf Resort on Sept 26th.  Lacie and her staff at the resort were in full force and ecstatic that finally, after so many years, the bridal suite was open and being taken full advantage of.  Beau Kramer from Kramer Events and his all star team of professional DJ services, lighting, and coordination experts were also there directing the show and doing what they do best, perfection!  The smell of McClintocks catering and their award winning food filled the air making us all hungry and anticipating when the moment would come where we could experience what they were cooking up.  Got You Covered provided many of the decorations, and their beautiful white tent took the event to a whole-nother level before it even had started.  Last but not least, Justin Jacobs and his team from Open Door Photography and Videography brought their happy, life and energy as they wonderfully captured every detail, making sure the event would be remembered forever.  

As far as Bryan and Connie, the couple getting married; despite being the coolest couple in the world, they are also co-owners with Connie's brother in Rustic Fire Pizza in Paso Robles; which is probably one of the tastiest pizzas you'll taste on our central coast.  Rustic Fire Pizza offers fire-roasted, gourmet pizza cooked with top notch, fresh ingredients and a tasty gelato to boot.  If you haven't eaten there, clear out your schedule and make it happen, it truly is an experience that you'll want to re-live over and over.  Connie and Bryan are probably the most down to earth couple you have ever met, and after only a few minutes of talking to them you feel like you've been welcomed in as a part of their family.  Their love is genuine, and in a world where the word "love" is thrown around, they truly mean it so very much and it is apparent in their every action with one another.  

The weather was absolutely gorgeous.  The bar was flowing with milk and honey, and the guests were ready to party.  The ceremony was personal and intimate, and offered the breath taking view of Avila Bay as Connie and Bryan said their "I do's."  The rest of the evening was filled with passion, fun and genuine delight as Mary and Pierce from Kramer Events orchestrated a smooth flowing, energy filled night of dancing and memories.  Every detail was perfectly executed and the touch of good ol' fashion ice cold milk and cookies were a great addition to some late night bites offered by McClintocks.  Justin Jacobs and his team at Open Door did what they do best, bring life and energy and capture moments that will never be forgotten.  Their famous reception slideshow of edited shots from the wedding day gathered family and friends and even brought tears to the couple as they re-lived their journey just hours before.  The question is, why did this event go off perfectly?  Not just because the couple was one of the coolest couples to walk on the face of the earth, and not because one or a few of the vendors were rock stars, but because as CCWP members we work together with one another, and with our couples to collectively provide them with the greatest possible day of their lives!  That's what we do best and that's what sets us apart from other vendors all over.  We are personal, professional, and we are the experts in our craft and field.  We are Central Coast Wedding Professionals

Scott and Chanel Beautiful Santa Barbara Wedding Belmond El Encanto

We had the privilege of shooting one of the prettiest weddings in the beautiful hills of Santa Barbara at the historic Belmond El Encanto. Some of the sweetest moments of a Father and his son and a husband and his wife.  Scott Schweer and Chanel Marie Schweer are such an awesome couple and probably one of the most beautiful couples both inside and out.  

The event was absolutely gorgeous and flowed perfectly from one magical moment to the next due to the flawless execution of Katie Webb and her team at Intertwined Events in Orange County. www.intertwinedevents.com   It was the first time we had the privilege to work alongside her and her team and I would absolutely recommend her for any future bride we talk to.  She was extremely personable, professional in every way, and confidently ran the event like a masterful artist.  Every moment was intentional and perfectly planned.  Thank you Katie for your utmost professionalism and commitment to excellence.  

The Belmond El Encanto and all of their staff I cannot say enough about.  The grounds and the property is probably one of the most gorgeous venues hidden away in the riviera of the Santa Barbara Hills.  Every room, piece of furniture, every staff member and every landscape feature radiated with the utmost detail and intentionality.  It was absolutely beautiful and made a magical, elegant, memorable venue to host any event, especially a wedding.
