I absolutely love her dress. I looked on the Songi website but didn’t see that particular style, does anyone know the name of it?
Kathy writes
Awesome photos- my favorite is in the boat, who would have thought to have them out there in the pouring rain. The fact that they went along and captured not only an amazing photo but the nature of this couple- life is to be enjoyed no matter what comes your way. Great job Braedon Photography on capturing this.

I want to see more! Where exactly did this wedding take place? She’s such a gorgeous bride and that dress is beautiful. Wow!
Adina writes
I love this wedding and I love the weather. It makes me so happy. I also love the sweaters. I’m thinking about fleece jackets as gifts to my bridesmaids.
Does anyone know where this barn is? I’m desperatly searching for a rustic barn with some land around in Northern California it for our wedding next September. That hopefully won’t break the bank :-)

Incredible pics. I like how festive everything looks, especially the glass jar candle holders!!
Christin writes
Songi custom made Laura’s dress for her, and the wrap I believe was from Anthropologie. The location is Rancho Dos Pueblos in Goleta, CA (just above Santa Barbara). Tricia made everything look beautiful. It was an amazing night! Braedon did an incredible job capturing it all.

Where did the bride find her wrap sweater. Might be the perfect thing for a winter wedding.

So cute and I love the chandelier.
brooke writes
wondering if this custom design was priced any less than it’s inspiration (amsale “coco”). i’ve been admiring that dress for months, wishing there was a cheaper alternative…

Hello Everyone
I was privileged to be the designer on Laura and Ryan’s wedding. Yes they are as fabulous as the pictures show. In ten years of designing I have rarely run across two more down to earth and easy going people. They could not have been sweeter! Laura’s beautiful dress was soaked, She had rain drops on her skin as she walked down the aisle. The grooms feet were soaking wet but all they could do was smile and express their huge gratitude to everyone involved. They can teach us all about our priorities in life! To answer some of the questions the location is a 1917 barn on the Dos Pueblos Ranch in Santa Barbara that my husband restored. The props are mine (the name tag rack is an antique French bottle drying rack). The “sweets” signs are large stencils that I glued over typing paper. I have to say that Braedon’s photos are some of the best I have ever seen. He really captured the feel of everyone and everything in impossible circumstances! The barn is available to the public, contact me at wwwtriciafountaine.com Thanks everyone for the great comments!
