The Couple
Victoria + Bryce are busy, busy, busy! Not only did they getting married but at the same time they sold their home in Virginia to get ready to move and relocate their life and business to Bozeman, Montana!

Getting Ready
The gorgeous couple got ready at the spectacular Belmond El Encanto which has the BEST view of Santa Barbara. After getting dolled up by the amazing Emily of Santa Barbara Hair and Makeup, we started the day off with a First Look and then explored the grounds for a bit before heading off to the courthouse and get them married.
Insider Tip: The portrait at the Belmond El Encanto pool is considered an iconic image of Santa Barbara that couples request often.
