As of yesterday I am officially on the three-month countdown to my wedding!!! I can hardly believe it!

As promised I am going to share all of the details leading up to this fast-approaching love fest. Keep your eyes peeled every Wednesday for the next twelve weeks as I share the inside scoop on the best bits (i.e. the dress, shower, flowers, bachelorette, etc… etc…). I’m so excited!

First things first… where are we getting hitched? As you may have already guessed, Santa Barbara, California is a very special place to my fiancé and I. It’s where we met twelve years ago (fun fact: it will be thirteen years the month of the wedding!). It’s also the home of Flutter, i.e. the quintessential Santa Barbara-inspired wedding.

With our most heart-fluttering Tuscan engagement fresh on our minds, we knew we wanted to capture the essence of that unforgettable experience and share it with our guests for the wedding.

Drum roll, please! Enter Sunstone Villa at Sunstone Vineyards & Winery. Just thirty-minutes north of Santa Barbara, the picturesque 55-acre vineyard estate sits pretty within the Santa Ynez Valley Mountains. It’s a Tuscan-inspired dream come true complete with unforgettable architecture, sweeping vistas, and flowing wine! Over the years it has become one of our most favorite places and we couldn’t be more excited that it’s ours to celebrate with…for a couple days at least! Stay tuned to see how we dress it up with our love.
