Anthea and Barry welcomed their guests to this unlikely venue which spends most of its days as a tech company but for a very lucky few, it gets to be a wedding venue that boasts the most stunning views of the Summerland & Santa Barbara Coast. Our couple chose to offer dinner ‘stations’ rather than a traditional buffet as a way to offer a variety of food options while spreading their guests out to see every side of this beautiful venue! After dinner (and an epic sunset) the couple and all their friends and family danced the night away while only pausing to feast on amazing sweets provided by Enjoy Cupcakes.
