The Dessert Buffet

More and more we have seen people opt out of the traditional enormous wedding cake and instead offer their guests an assortment of desserts to choose from. Here are some adorable dessert buffets we found.
Special thanks to Green Wedding Shoes for all their beautiful postings.

Hanging Lights ... lovely.

The Greenhouse...

Unquestionably one of the most unique and romantic spaces in Santa Barbara. Whimsical. Magical. Gardenesque.



Twinkle lights, glowing fireplace and vintage bar, candles and soft music create one-of-a-kind ambiance, celebrated year after year for anniversaries, birthdays, intimate dinner parties, welcomes & goodbyes, retirements and of course… weddings and all related festivities.



The beautiful fireplace is an ideal backdrop to enjoy everything from an evening of live jazz, celebrating a milestone, or even dropping to one knee to propose to the love of your life.

Rain or shine the Stella Mare’s Greenhouse is un-matched in classic, casual elegance…
