A WEDDING AT THE SANTA BARBARA ZOO: ADAM + SORAYA

When you’re looking for a destination wedding location and love animals, well the Santa Barbara Zoo is the destination to choose.  What a perfect backdrop for this absolutely gorgeous wedding on the grass and a reception full of white canopies and gold, animal accents.  Guests got to enjoy feeding the giraffes and saying hello to Monty, the little penguin who joined cocktail hour. Adam and Soraya fit perfectly into this setting with their love for one another surrounded by family and friends from all over.  And may I just mention Soraya’s dress.  Unique and stunning!  The heart shape in the back, the collar… I just love.  They drank some wine, broke the glass, and after the Hora, danced the night away!
