Real Wedding Saturday: Christina & Sam

When I asked the talented Elizabeth Messina if she had any photos to share for a Real Wedding Saturday post, she sent these lovelies over. Imagine my surprise when I opened the email, and saw that the wedding was Christina's - the sister of my dear friend Kathleen! (You may remember that I made a board for Kathleen awhile back.)

Initially, Chris and her then-fiance Sam wanted to elope, but Chris' mom really wanted to see them get married. This intimate wedding, with immediate family members only, at the gorgeous Bacara Resort and Spa in Santa Barbara was the perfect compromise. During their stay, the couple and their families enjoyed spa treatments, fitting with the relaxed feel of the wedding. The reception was an extended dinner at the resort's restaurant.

Totesy,

I'm sorry you feel that way. I'm not sure how you feel that I've been using my blog to promote friends lately, but I assure you that I never post anything on Snippet & Ink that I don't think my readers will find inspirational, useful, or entertaining.

Best,
Kathryn

What a beautiful wedding! I definitely feel inspired! Do you know who did the flowers?

I asked Christina if she knew who did the flowers, but her step-mom was in charge of that detail, so she didn't know. But aren't they gorgeous!? If I find out anymore about that, I'll let you know.

I think you're talking about that fabulous green dress? Kathleen (the lovely redhead wearing it) said that it's by Laundry. Hope that helps!
