Maria and Preston's farm boy loves city girl wedding was all about the melding of rustic charm with glitz and glamor. The entire day was filled to the brim lots of burlap, raw wood and accented with soft peach and pink roses, lace and glitter. As you will soon see this wedding is a show stopper. All held at the fabulous, Santa Barbara Historical Musuem.
As always there is so much more to see of this fabulous day in the full gallery here. Captured by Aaron Young. Best part about this feature, is you are able to see the full budget breakdown of the day. Always so great.

Rustic Glamor Wedding

From Simply Sweet Weddings & Events: It was a romantic day that played off the Farm Boy and City Girl, they really complemented each other perfectly! We loved her cascading bouquet and bright, fun pops of coral. The garland on the altar and wooden ceremony seating really accented the farm aspect of their big day.

Soak in the Day

From the Bride: I would just emphasize to each bride to be in the moment and be present to everything around you on your wedding day. Try to soak it all in because it goes so fast. Don't worry if anything goes wrong because it may and there is nothing you can do at that point. If you let it be the best day of your life, it will be.
