Santa Barbara Garden Street Academy Wedding
A couple weeks ago I photographed my friend’s, Amanda and Jason’s wedding in Santa Barbara at Garden Street Academy. This is such a gorgeous and unique hidden gem! Near the Santa Barbara Mission and the Museum of Natural History, this school also offers the space for private events but limits the amount they allow per year. Reach out to them right away to make sure you can reserve a day to have your wedding at this unique venue. It has the traditional Spanish architecture often found throughout Santa Barbara, with several small gardens, a large lawn area that’s perfect for the cocktail hour, and it even has a private chapel that can be decorated and personalized. Amanda has an amazing eye for detail and she made the space look even more beautiful!
Amanda and Jason both got ready at a cute little Air BnB about 5 minutes from the venue. We got their first look photos on the property before heading over to Garden Street Academy for the ceremony and reception. The ceremony was held at the venue’s chapel and was officiated by our friend, Tim from In the Mix Events. The reception was so much fun, since Amanda and Jason are good friends of mine, I was also one of the guests and could enjoy the party with all of our friends. I still kept my camera nearby and made sure to capture the most important moments for them.
