With family and friends in attendance, Taylor and Johnny tied the knot in the beautiful Spanish Colonial-style venue of Santa Barbara Historical Museum. Their wedding encapsulated classic coastal minimalism – the color palette was neutral and inspired by homewares of Serena & Lily, incorporating white florals with pops of blue; even the bridesmaids wore white. The bougainvillea throughout the property brought in a delightful hues of magenta, which the officiant matched with a floral appliqué on his robes. The ceremony was especially heartfelt as the Taylor walked down the aisle to the same song her mother did, Franki Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You". Later, at the Reception, letters from the bride and groom greeted quests at their table. Instead of champagne, the couple chose an espresso martini toast. The wedding came to a close with a personal favorite: late-night tacos.
