There were so many extra-special details about Eliot and Alex’s Santa Barbara Historical Museum wedding! For starters, Eliot worked on visual displays at Anthropologie, so she made the most of her creative tendencies when it came to ceremony and reception decor: the entry sign, ceremony plinths, and lawn games were all handmade by the bride herself. Eliot and Alex collaborated on their hand-painted wedding stationery, and even the bride’s grandmother got in on the DIY action, carving a cake topper for the couple’s special day.
Alex’s grandfather officiated the ceremony, and Eliot walked down the aisle in a romantic silver gown from BHLDN. Bridesmaids wore emerald green, and Tracey from Ella + Louie blended king protea and fall foliage seamlessly for a perfect autumn celebration.
