Joe was a phenomenal vendor from start to finish; he was recommended to us via my bridal shop and we couldn't be more pleased with his help throughout the planning process and the day of our wedding. Joe handled the music and emcee portion of our wedding day but also handled lighting for the dance floor and cluster lights and drapery within our ceremony space. He spent so much time with us planning and preparing the space and we are so grateful for his professionalism, expertise, and time. I'd recommend Joe to anyone planning a wedding or other special event.

My husband and I met Sarah in 2021 for our engagement shoot. We were blow away with the quality of photos she delivered. Sarah has a natural gift for capturing each couples true selves. In each photo Sarah took of us our personalities were able to shine because she made us feel comfortable. We had so much fun on our shoot that we flew Sarah out to FL to capture our wedding day. Once again Sarah did not disappoint! We absolutely love our wedding gallery. I was impressed that Sarah was able to acclimate to weather restrictions and a change of plans last minute. Sarah is so talented and so lovely to be around. We would highly recommended her !

Michele was our full wedding planner. Our wedding went perfect without a single hitch and it was all thanks to Michele. We had the caterer for our rehearsal dinner drop out one week before the event and Michele found us a replacement within an hour; and the replacement caterer was a slam dunk. Everyone loved the food. On the day of the wedding and rehearsal dinner Michele and Dan did everything. And I mean everything. She set up tables, positioned flowers and welcome signs and seating charts. She ironed over disagreements with vendors and never once did we have to lift a finger. It is a common saying that the bride and groom never enjoy their own wedding but we thoroughly had a blast at ours thanks to Michele. She is forever our go-to recommendation to all our friends getting married. If she has availability to plan your wedding, book her.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring DJ Jas was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding weekend. He handled everything: our rehearsal dinner, welcome party, Baraat, ceremony, reception, choreographed dances, and the full dance floor - and absolutely crushed every single moment. From day one, he was incredibly thorough and intentional in his preparation. He met with us as often as we wanted, took the time to really understand us as a couple, and made the entire collaboration feel effortless. He welcomed our playlists and suggestions, but also took creative ownership in a way that elevated everything. The result? There was never a dull moment. The dance floor was electric. Truly. He had it rocking all night long. Multiple guests came up to us throughout the weekend saying how incredible the DJ was and how much the music stood out across all of our events. And the Baraat… that was next level. This is a non-traditional element for many DJs, but he embraced it fully and CRUSHED it. Mobbed down State Street with him by our side, music blasting, our friends and family dancing through the streets - it was one of the best moments of our lives. He understood the cultural importance and delivered beyond what we imagined. Beyond his talent, he genuinely cared about us. He was easy to talk to, always available for questions, calm, collaborative, and fully invested in making our wedding unforgettable. We truly couldn’t imagine a better DJ for our weekend. If you want a packed dance floor, flawless execution, and someone who deeply cares about getting it right - DJ JAS is your guy. Could not recommend more.

During this time, she did an absolutely incredible job in balancing taking photos of the beautiful scenery, the wedding party, and my husband and I. The photography turned out INCREDIBLE. Lerina's ability to communicate, multi-task and blend in perfectly with wedding party was wonderful. She is so personable, and talked with us extensively about what we were looking for in our wedding photography. She was willing and eager to go to great lengths to get some very adventurous photos, and my husband and I truly could not be happier with how they turned out. I would absolutely recommend Lerina Winter for your photography needs, and I truly get told all the time how beautiful our photos are.

USSB was more than I could have wished for. I myself am catholic, however my now husband was not raised catholic therefore a traditional catholic wedding was not going to be an option for us. We got lucky enough that USSB was recommended to us before we had just settled on getting married at the court house. Although Santa Barbara is home to a beautiful court house, nothing would have compared to USSB. It was the most beautiful ceremony I could have asked for, allowing me to incorporate the perfect touches of a catholic ceremony with the freedom of being in a non-denominational setting. Joanie was also great to work with she kept us at ease every step of the way & was already readily available when we had any questions or concerns planning the ceremony in getting all the vendors aligned together. If you’re looking for a timeless traditional venue with a touch of church setting USSB is the place for you.

Everyone at Live Oak made it easy for us to achieve the wedding setup we envisioned. From showing us photos of the space with others' decor, to sending us links with suggestions, coming to the venue to help us plan at times that worked for us, working with us to create a checklist and timeline, and showing up early/ staying late to clean up, we felt that the people at Live Oak really wanted to help us achieve the wedding that worked for us. On the day of the wedding, it was nice to have the Cottage as a room to prep and primp, and I was able to see the arriving guests while staying unseen. We also stored flowers in the kitchen fridge, which helped keep them fresh. Overall, we were consulted as to our wishes prior to the event, then during the actual wedding, things that needed to be done "behind the scenes" were taken care of, which left us able to focus on our guests and each other.

Dani was an amazing officiant. We got so many compliments on how personal the ceremony was, and she was a pleasure to work with. She took a lot of care in making sure she spoke we multiple times over the phone (we were from out of town), and ensured we were happy with the final ceremony script. She was professional but had that extra hint of care. She also filed our marriage license the next business day, which was very much appreciated.

Our main goal was for our wedding day to be relaxing and stress-free, and Randy made sure of that.

We loved that he listed to our vision but also gave great suggestions based on his past experience. There were many moving parts and multiple vendors involved, and Randy handled this with precision and extreme organization. Especially working in corporate events professionally myself, I knew exactly what I was looking for in a day-of coordinator and that was Randy.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brittany is an UNBELIEVABLY talented photographer. It was an incredible gift to be able to relax on my wedding day and fully trust that Brittany would capture everything. Our venue was at a private residence rather than a traditional wedding venue so, naturally, Brittany had never been there before yet, in an instant, she scoped out all the best spots to shoot, both indoors and outdoors, and she single-handedly captured the entire day after our second shooter called out sick. Our photos are STUNNING. She is a true artist. Had I been offered the choice of any photographer in the world, I still would've chosen Brittany. I think it might be impossible for anyone to not love her work. As a bonus, she is an absolute gem of a human being and someone you just want to be around. Thank you, Brittany, it was an honor to have you capture our wedding.

From the beginning, Leah was easy to work with, she listened closely to what we envisioned for our wedding and was able to provide us with creative ideas when we needed some help or felt overwhelmed. Leah's photography skills were superb and she provided us with so many beautiful pictures of us, our friends, venues, and so much more. Her turnaround time on getting us the photos was so quick too! Not only did she provide great photos, but she assisted as our "day-of-coordinator." Leah eased our fears so many times leading up to the wedding, she was easy to get a hold of or would reach out to us to make sure our wedding was coming together, and helped us communicate with some our other vendors when we needed an extra hand.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do we even start? Choosing Moments by Frank was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We knew we wanted a photographer who wouldn’t just take beautiful pictures but would truly capture how the day felt—and wow, did they deliver. Looking through our photos and watching our video was emotional in the best way possible. It wasn’t just a collection of pretty moments—it was our wedding, exactly as we remembered it. The joy, the happy tears, the way our families looked at us, the little in-between moments we didn’t even realize were happening… they caught it all. It felt like stepping right back into that day, and we can’t stop looking at them. But what made the experience even better? Frank and his team felt like old friends. From the moment we inquired with him, he was so friendly and social and so easy to get along with him. On the wedding day, they blended in so seamlessly with our family and friends, making everyone feel comfortable. The last thing we wanted was to feel like we were stuck in a never-ending photoshoot, and they got that. They let the moments unfold naturally, gave just enough direction when needed, and made sure we could actually be present on our wedding day. If you’re looking for a team that’s not just talented but also genuinely amazing to be around, this is it. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Angie, you were absolutely incredible to work with. We had a wonderful time partnering with Angie to create our dream wedding. She was recommended to us by our venue, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, and we are so happy we chose her! Angie has such a positive personality, always kept everything under control, and never let us feel overwhelmed. It was so smooth at times we wondered what we were forgetting, and Angie always reassured us that we had it all covered. She did it ALL - from getting our vendor rates and availability sorted to showing us all our options and details that made the day come to life. Through our regularly scheduled calls and all the messaging in between, she asked all the right questions to help guide the process, (even for things we hadn't even thought about) and was always available for the one-off questions and to keep us sane, especially during those final two critical months before the big day. Angie also has a wonderful website that organized all our to-do lists, inspo pics, budget info, timelines, vendor details, etc. We didn’t realize how essential something like this was for keeping us on track, and it was little extra details like this that made such a difference. It's because of Angie that we had such wonderful vendors, a significantly less painful planning experience, and a flawlessly executed wedding day!

I'm so happy you're here! My name is Lena and I'm all about the "spices of life" thanks to my strong Scandinavian roots. My studio started and currently resides in the fields of the Santa Ynez Valley, and spans to the beautiful landscapes, architecture, and vibrant vibes of Santa Barbara County.

What can we possibly say about Lena? She was the perfect addition to our wedding day. Her communication and flexibility during the preceding year kept our minds at ease (anything you don't have to stress about while planning a wedding is a win). On the day, she was such a positive presence to have around. And from what we've seen of the photos so far, we couldn't have possibly had anyone better. Thank you so much, Lena!!

I had the pleasure of hiring Ozella for my wedding, and I can't express how thrilled we were with her performance. From the very first contact, she was professional, warm, and genuinely excited to be part of our special day. She sang a selection of our favorite songs with such emotion and precision that many of our guests were moved to tears. Her rendition of our chosen wedding song was particularly breathtaking – it felt like a personal and intimate moment just for us. Our guests are still raving about her performance, and many have asked for her contact details for their own events. Hiring Ozella was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She helped create a beautiful and unforgettable atmosphere that perfectly complemented our celebration. Thank you, Ozella, for making our day so special. We can't wait to see you perform again!

Brenda and her team were so helpful and made sure our day was perfect! She was quick to respond on any questions we had and was always willing to help via call or email. Choosing vendors is never an easy task, but with Brenda’s help and wonderful advice choosing all our vendors was totally achievable. We knew nothing about wedding planning or where to even start, but with deadlines that Brenda gave us and timelines everything seemed to go together and planning a wedding actually made sense. Everyone who was able to attend our wedding has said it was “one of the best weddings ever” and they loved how everything was setup, and none of that would’ve been done without the Gathering for Goods team. Our wedding was the most memorable, relaxing, and enjoyable experience for us and many of our family and friends as well! Without Brenda and her team we would’ve been much more stressed and lost. There isn’t a thing we would’ve changed about our wedding, Brenda you’re an amazing wedding coordinator. Thank you to the entire Gathering for Goods Team for helping create a memory we will cherish forever!! - The Rainbolts

We had the absolute best experience with our wedding photographer! From the moment she and her second shooter Lauren arrived, they brought such warmth and ease to the day. My husband and I are both notoriously awkward in front of the camera, but they made us feel so comfortable and natural—it honestly felt like hanging out with friends. The preview photos we’ve received so far are absolutely stunning, and I couldn’t be happier with her work. I’m beyond excited to see the full gallery. What impressed me even more was how gracefully they adapted to the day’s hiccups. Despite less-than-ideal direction, they rolled with the punches and got creative, making sure to capture everything beautifully and meaningfully. I truly can’t recommend her enough—professional, talented, calm under pressure, and just an overall joy to work with. Book her. You won’t regret it!

I have seen Albert’s work from afar for years and to say he is a good photographer is a compete understatement. He went above and beyond our expectations ! He is truly an expert in his craft , not only did he have great recommendations for the location, he was timely, friendly, & gave excellent direction on how we were to pose for each photo. We booked Albert for a pre-wedding photoshoot and honestly amidst all of the chaos and confusion that goes with wedding planning he was the one aspect that we did not have to second guess at all. I would highly recommend Chernogorov Photography for Any & All looking for diligence and efficiency !
