I was visiting an old favorite venue of mine in Montecito over the weekend and took a million photos. Every time that I visit this Estate, I fall deeper in love with it as well as its history. Talk about roots! Weddings here are magical and I can't wait until I have another one there soon. Enjoy the pictures!
